A sculptural bronze of two figures on horseback – titled ‘Riders’ – first shown in 1989 by the late British sculptor, Terence Coventry (1938-2017).

Coventry’s works were exhibited several times at Gallery Pangolin, including posthumously following selected exhibitions after the sculptor’s death. This bronze sculpture is one of these such pieces. The sculpture is pictured in a press release from Gallery Pangolin exhibiting Terence Coventry’s works from April 2019.

Although unsigned by the artist, there is an accompanying Certificate of Authenticity from Gallery Pangolin. It is a limited-edition piece, edition 5 of 7 similar made.

Depicting two horse riders, this three-dimensional figural sculpture will make a fantastic display piece in an interior, ideally situated on a plinth so that it’s beauty can be observed from every angle.

Price includes Artist’s Resale Rights (ARR) at 4%.

TERENCE COVENTRY (1938-2017)

Terence Coventry was a British figurative sculptor. He showcased a flair for the creative from a young age and studied at the Stourbridge School of Art where he was taught by Keith Leonard, former studio assistant to the modernist 20th century sculptor, Dame Barbara Hepworth.

Such was Coventry’s talent that he later studied at London’s Royal College of Art in 1958. However, it wasn’t until he was 61 that he exhibited at his first solo show. Following this, Coventry showcased his works at several exhibitions across the UK and Europe.

Coventry’s sculptural figures were highly influenced by his 25-year farming career on the coast of Cornwall. He later converted his farming meadows into a scenic sculpture park overlooking the Cornish landscape called the Terence Coventry Sculpture Park.
