Sculpture, entitled The Lovers, by Alexander Leckie

Add to album

This stoneware sculpture, entitled 'The Lovers', was made by the Scottish artist Alexander Leckie in 1980. The sculpture depicts two figures seated facing each other. It was made of stoneware clay with an ochre and rust-red dry glaze.

During the 1980s the Scottish Development Agency purchased a number of hand-crafted items for its Scottish Crafts Collection. The aim of the collection was to inform the public of craft production in Scotland through touring exhibitions and education programmes. When the Scottish Craft Council was wound up, the collection was transferred to the National Museums of Scotland.
