The sculpture was purchased by Harlow Art Trust from Vogel’s studio in 1955. It had been in the artist’s garden by the river in Chiswick and Dr Vogel called it ‘Clouds’. The Trust sited the sculpture at the community centre in Potter Street and it was later relocated to Harlow Museum.

Vogel is known for his portrait and figurative work and showed in London galleries, open-air park shows and the Festival of Britain. In 1960, Harlow Art Trust also purchased Vogel’s bronze ‘Standing Boy’ but it was stolen from the Water Gardens in 1967.
