Two Watchers V
1960
Two Watchers V is a patinated bronze sculpture created by Lynn Chadwick in 1960. The work features two distinct abstract figures that appear to observe their surroundings with heightened awareness. The patina process gives the bronze a weathered, aged appearance that adds depth and character to the piece. This sculpture exemplifies Chadwick's modernist approach to figuration through geometric abstraction. The title suggests a narrative element of watchfulness and vigilance between the two forms.
