About the Artwork

Cristina Rommel, the artist, writes: Pride is one of the 7 deadly sins and in this case, it is a person with the look upwards, as arrogant and perfect, the whole head is made up of cubes. That they mix in different planes and spaces. Modelled and cast in bronze. Ideal for indoor or outdoor use and to represent a very cultured and demanding person.

The above is translated from Spanish: La Soberbia, es uno de los 7 pecados capitales y en este caso, es una persona con la miraba hacia arriba, como arrogante y perfecto, Toda la cabeza esta compuesta por cubos. Que se entre mezclan en diferentes planos y espacios. Modelada y fundida en bronce. Ideal para interior o exterior y representar a una persona muy culta y exigente.

Artist Comment

I loved playing with the geometric shapes emerging from the clay, to finally transfer it to bronze, it is a long process, but extremely satisfying. In this bronze sculpture, you can see the head of the Superb, I made it with cubic shapes since the cube is perfect, and I played with this shape to create an arrogant and haughty head. The above is translated from Spanish: Me encanto jugar con las formas geométricas que iban, surgiendo de la arcilla, para pasarla finalmente al bronce, es un proceso largo, pero sumamente satisfactorio. En esta escultura en bronce, se puede ver la cabeza de la Soberbia, la realice con formas cubicas ya que para que el cubo, es perfecto, y jugué con esta forma para crear una cabeza arrogante y altiva.

  • The ArtParkS Guarentee

    All the sculptures on the website are described by the Artists themselves stating the materiel they are made from and their dimensions. If they are stated to be suitable for outdoors they have a guarentee of 10 years subject to the effects of weathering which will alter their colour and finish over the years unless you give them  regular cleaning and maintenance. For instance Bronze and to a lesser extent bronze resin/cold cast bronze will aquire a green patina, usually rather sought after and all could attract moss  lichen and a greeny pollen especially under trees which should be removed regularly with warm water and washing up liquid.
    Iron and steel will oxidise(rust ) and this falls outside our guarentee.
    Organic materiel like wood, bark willow is variable and depends to a great extent on where it is sited and you should discuss any guarentee direct with the Artist as this too falls outside our Guarentee.
