This photograph showcases the sculpture "Donkey" by Willi Soukop, situated at Pittmans Field in Harlow, Essex. Created in 1955, this post-war sculpture stands as a testament to the artistic innovation and creativity that emerged in the aftermath of World War II. Willi Soukop, a German-born artist, was a key figure in the development of modernist sculpture in Britain. His unique style, characterized by abstract forms and organic shapes, can be seen in full force in this sculpture of a donkey. The animal's form is depicted in a stylized and abstracted manner, with its curves and contours exaggerated to create a sense of movement and energy. The photograph, taken by Steven Baker in 2015, captures the sculpture from a north-westerly angle, providing a general view of the work. The setting sun casts a warm glow over the sculpture, illuminating its textured surface and adding depth and dimension to the image. The surrounding greenery and open sky serve as a beautiful backdrop, highlighting the sculpture's organic forms and connection to nature. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich artistic history of Harlow and the important role that public sculpture played in post-war Britain. It serves as a reminder of the power of art to inspire, provoke thought, and bring joy to people, even in the most unexpected places.
