A Follow-up to my Last Posting on Jacob Epstein

While sorting through some papers, I came across a box of notes I forgot I had written while at college. I stopped to glance through and I noticed part of an interview with Jacob Epstein, in my handwriting so I can’t discover where I got the notes from. But it reads,  

‘’I finally decided to leave Paris for good and coming to England, I rented a bungalow on the Sussex coast at a solitary place called Pett Level, where I could look out to sea and carve away to my hearts content without troubling a soul. It was here that I carved the ‘Venus’, the three groups of doves, the two flenite carvings and the marble ‘Mother and Child’.
