Biography

Miss Sprigge was born in London and, throughout 1926 and 1927, studied at the Royal College of Art where her tutors included Henry Moore.[1][2] During the 1930s she produced sculptures in marble, stone and wood and had pieces exhibited at major London galleries including Agnews and the Leicester Galleries.[1][3] In 1936 Sprigge had a solo exhibition at the Bloomsbury Gallery in London.[1]

For a time she lived, and maintained a studio, at Loughton in Essex but later in her life, Sprigge moved to Llanpumpsaint in Wales.[3][2][1]
