Patinated bronze & stainless steel, edition no. 2/6.
73 x 43 x 38 cm.

Note : This work is No.2 in the edition of six. In this case, the edition was not marked or signed. However this work was actually the one illustrated in the Pangolin catalogue and the finial was finalised after the photo was taken. There are no smaller versions of Maypole but it is similar to two earlier works; one smaller and one much larger: Bronze Full Moon 1987; and Sunrise 1987, which is a unique work at the Utsukushi-ga-hara, Open Air Museum, Tokyo. Both these works can be distinguished from Maypole as they have an elliptical metal disc set on the surface of the circular element. (Maypole is not featured in William Pye, his work and his words, Brown&Brown, 2010, but Sunrise is, see p.128.)
