Über die Skulptur
This plaster relief depicting a sentimental King Charles Spaniel in its basket, is made by George Gammon Adams.
The sentimental subject matter suggests it was perhaps a model for a funerary monument to a dog.
George Gammon Adams (b. 1821-1898) was a portrait sculptor and medallist. He designed and exhibited prize medals for the Great Exhibition. In 1852 he was chosen to model the death mask of Wellington. One of his public monuments is the 'Napier' statue in Trafalgar square.
The bust was among the items given to the Museum by I. D. Adams, the daughter of George Gammon Adams, in 1980. In total, 196 items were included in the Adams gift, which consisted of many models for medals as well as the busts and figurative sculpture.
