The image showcases Mitzi Solomon Cunliffe's remarkable sculpture, Root Bodied Forth, exhibited proudly on the South Bank Exhibition site in Lambeth, London. Meticulously captured by photographer M W Parry, this archival print transports us back to an era of artistic innovation and cultural celebration. Root Bodied Forth stands as a testament to Cunliffe's creative genius. Its intricate design and imposing presence command attention from all who lay eyes upon it.
