Wide eyed and legless

Sculpture entitled Three Obliques in bronze by Dame Barbara Hepworth (1968).

Dame Jocelyn Barbara Hepworth DBE (10 January 1903 – 20 May 1975) was an English artist and sculptor. Her work exemplifies Modernism and in particular modern sculpture. She was one of the few female artists of her generation to achieve international prominence. Along with artists such as Ben Nicholson and Naum Gabo, Hepworth was a leading figure in the colony of artists who resided in St Ives during the Second World War.

You certainly need to look at it for a while - and still not quite work it out. Needs to be seen in 3D i think. But I like your shot of it!

There are 3 blocks, Andy, and the confusion arises because the third block is behind the part on the left. The link may help ypu to get your head round it.
