The iron and bronze sculptures created by Lynn Chadwick portray sim- plified zoomorphic or anthropomorphic figures and are imbued with a powerful emotional charge. His approach to sculpting was rooted in construction rather than in modelling. In Crouching Beast, geometry supplants a more organic form. We are faced with the monumental form of a seated animal, which appears to survey its surroundings.
