Barney Seale (1896–1957)

National Portrait Gallery, London

Sculptor and painter, noted for his portrait sculptures in bronze, but also as an architectural sculptor. He worked with the sculptor William Silver Frith, who taught at Lambeth School of Art and who was also an architectural sculptor. Seale was elected RBA in 1938, also exhibiting at RA, RCamA and RSA and having solo shows in London and New York. He was an associate of RBS. Seale’s striking figure I Write for the New Kensington Library, one of a series of three and in stone, is illustrated in Arthur T Broadbent’s Sculpture Today in Great Britain 1940–1943, published in 1949. In 1986 the Fine Art Society included him in the survey Sculpture in Britain Between The Wars. Seale, a huge, hard-drinking man who was fond of good living, was a noted member of the Chelsea Arts Club.
