I must admit when it comes to my two sons I am a complete softy. Saying that I am proud of them would be an understatement. The oldest is working on a post-graduate degree and the youngest just earned the rank of Major in the US army. Lord help me, but I must have done something right in raising them. When I saw this clay sculpture of a father & son titled "After the Bath" it touched something in my heart. The artist, Holger Christensen (1890-1965), was, from what little I could find on his biography, a sculptor and designer for the Royal Copenhagen Factory from 1910 to 1960, producing many famous Royal Copenhagen figures. Unfortunately, even my Benezit Dictionary of Artists did not list him, so there is scant biographic information that I could find about this talented artist. Enjoy.
