For the many years that he possessed the One Ring of Power, the creature Gollum was cursed with a long and pitiable life. Driven from his home, he became a wretched soul, a sniveling and gurgling fiend without a friend in the world except that which he called his ‘precious’. The Ring tortured and consumed him, breaking his fragile mind until he became two distinct entities. Smeagol was his name from long ago and what little remained of that self cowered within him from the cruel counsel of Gollum, his new Ring consumed self.
Sculpted by Jamie Beswarick, the essence of Smeagol is brilliantly captured in this 1:4 scale bust. Smeagol has been hand cast in heavy weight polystone and hand painted to the highest standards. He sits on a classically turned base that includes his full name and the sculptor’s signature.
