Three distinct artistic portrayals of the same woman across different mediums and styles. On the left is a bronze sculpture bust featuring a smooth, stylized face wearing a gleaming, polished golden helmet, evoking a modern yet classical sensibility. The central panel is a painting with bold, expressive brushstrokes and a vivid red background, depicting her seated on a patterned couch, wearing a deep black dress with a round brooch at the chest, her hands gently clasped in her lap. The rightmost panel is a more realistic oil painting, presenting the woman in a confident stance with her hand on her hip, dressed in a crisp white blouse, green cardigan, and brown skirt, her expression calm yet assertive against a muted backdrop. Together, the three works highlight different interpretations of the subject’s personality and presence through sculpture and painting.

The image shows two side-by-side sculptures against a black background. On the left is a Lamassu, an ancient Assyrian protective deity carved from stone, depicted with the body of a bull or lion, the wings of an eagle, and the head of a bearded man, adorned with detailed curls and wearing a horned headdress. On the right is a black-and-white photo of the tomb of Oscar Wilde in Père Lachaise Cemetery, Paris, featuring a modernist stone winged figure by sculptor Jacob Epstein. The figure has a stylized human face with an elaborate headpiece and large, horizontally striated wings extending back over a rectangular base bearing Wilde’s name.
Winged bull, Palace of Sargon II (710-705 BC) + Jacob Epstein, Tomb of Oscar Wilde (1914)
The Assyrian bulls in The British Museum (and Wilde's poem The Sphinx) influenced Epstein’s conception

Londoners love discovering things from the past that are seemingly from the future. Robot scultpure behind me viewed at #TateBritain yesterday reminded me of modern #StarWars but it is in fact Torso In Metal From Rock Drill made in 1913 by #JacobEpstein.

This was me in the late 80s. Oscar's monument has aged better in the intervening years!
