EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Three Masterpieces by Charles Sargeant Jagger: Music, Prometheus Bound, and Man and the Maelstrom Charles Sargeant Jagger (1885-1934) was a renowned British sculptor, celebrated for his figures and elegant designs. This photograph showcases three of his early works: Music, Prometheus Bound, and Man and the Maelstrom. At the top, Music, the design which earned Jagger the prestigious Prix de Rome in 1914, is depicted. This graceful and elegant piece, featuring a group of musicians in bas-relief, demonstrates the artist's exceptional skill in capturing the essence of music through sculpture. In the lower left corner, Prometheus Bound, a powerful and mythological figure, is shown in a state of torment. Jagger's interpretation of the ancient Greek mythological character exudes raw emotion and strength, making it a testament to his artistic vision and mastery of the human form. On the lower right, Man and the Maelstrom, another intriguing work, portrays a man in the midst of a maelstrom or whirlpool. This piece, with its dynamic and fluid forms, showcases Jagger's ability to create a sense of movement and energy in his sculptures. Best known for his war memorials, particularly the Royal Artillery Memorial in London, Jagger's active service during the First World War deeply influenced his work. These early pieces, however, offer a glimpse into the artistic prowess and versatility that would later make him a celebrated figure in the world of sculpture. Date: 1914.
