Karin Jonzen
Article Abstract:
Sculptor Karin Jonzen showed artistic talent from an early age, and was sent to study at the Slade. She developed her classical style through studying exhibits at the British Museum and the National Gallery. She won the Prix de Rome in 1939, and during the second world war began to become increasingly interested in sculpture. She was involved in several art galleries, but her reputation began to fade and she found it very difficult to have her work shown at commercial galleries. Her career recovered towards the end of her life.
