Frank Dobson
Frank Dobson is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Frank Dobson was the guy who turned 1920s London’s rainy afternoons into smooth bronze cheeks and sharp-collared suits. He started as a painter then switched to sculpture, always keeping a pocket notebook to jot down the exact curve of a jaw or the tilt of a hat brim. You’ll spot his work if you duck into the Royal Academy Summer Show around 1933—look for the bronze head of his wife, Lilian, whose lips seem to catch the light like a polished apple.
