Note:
During the 1920s and 1930s Agatha Walker created a series of sculptures some of which depicted actors, actresses and leading figures of the day. The plaster forms were wax coated and coloured. The Fine Art Society in London held an exhibition of her work in 1931 and the Victoria & Albert Museum holds a number of works by her, as does Dorset County Museum.
