This piece is truly an enduring classic.

"Vincent Glinsky was born in Russia and emigrated to America as a young man, and underwent formal training at the famed Beaux Art Institute in New York, the premiere artistic educational institution of its time. After receiving a prestigious Guggenheim Fellowship, Glinsky left America to settle in Italy, and following that, in France. While his works are represented in the nations finest museums, a number of them are still available to the private collector. Trained in the high classical practice, Glinsky's work is of a technical level that approaches extinction today. His work is not concerned with passing fashions, but rather with the time honored traditions of sculpting; Glinsky's direct-carved work has an enduring solidity and value. His sensitivity and craft found their natural expression in figurative work, for which he was best known. His human forms exude a warmth and animation that belie their construction."
