"Bbc Speakerthon, Broadcasting House, London," is a stone relief by British sculptor Eric Gill, known for his distinctive style that blended Art Deco with classical influences. The artwork depicts three figures engaged in a lively scene. A central figure, likely representing the act of broadcasting, plays a flute while two others, possibly symbolizing the audience, react with energy. The relief's simple forms and dynamic poses embody the spirit of communication, suggesting a celebration of the nascent medium of radio. Gill's distinctive style is evident in the simplified anatomy and emphasis on movement, making this an engaging and visually arresting piece.
