The humble domestic chicken is not often a subject for sculpture although popular in pictorial art. As a lifetime chicken keeper, I have always been attracted by their character and self-possession. Here I find expression for that in a small hen foraging for food in the farmyard. I hope I have managed to portray her with the affection I feel for the species.

Jonathan Knight

Jonathan Knight is one of the leading animalier sculptors of his generation. Through the animal, bird and equestrian sculptures in which he specializes, he has established an international reputation. His work is collected widely in the UK and Europe, but has also gone as far afield as Australia, the United States, Malaysia, and Singapore.

Inspired, in part, by the ground-breaking animal bronze sculpture of northern Europe in the early 20th century, Jonathan Knight has forged his own unique style. It is one in which a stylistic formality of approach is softened by a tenderness of observation.
