Provenance: Private Collection, Cleveland, Ohio
The Madonna Hand is based on the left hand of Frink's 1981 full size bronze sculpture "Walking Madonna," in the gardens of Chatsworth House, Derbyshire. Walking Madonna has been called Frink's 'greatest achievement for a standing figure,' and is a beloved figure of the Chatsworth Gardens, with visitors grasping the hand causing wear to the patination. Walking Madonna is also sited at Salisbury Cathedral in Wiltshire.
