Sugar Plum – About This Piece
Sugar Plum was the first of Heather’s life-sized foals to be cast in bronze from the driftwood original. An edition of five was planned, but only three were cast before the moulds were lost (until recent contact from the owner of the second cast, we had believed that the edition ended at number two). In the above photograph the bronze is in the foreground, with the driftwood original from which it was cast in the background. You can see the clear divergence in colour: the driftwood bleaches over time, but the bronze darkens.
Jansch’s foals have long been among the most popular of her work, and the original edition of Sugar Plum is quickly sold out. There will be no further casts.
There are several more of Heather’s life-size foals still available, in both the driftwood original and bronze, including Cherry Pie, Dylan, Sugar Babe and Clover.
