Brilliant travelled widely over her lifetime, producing sculptures of significant figures from across the world. Her portraits include those of Buckminster Fuller, J.F. Kennedy, Anton Chekhov, and Duncan Grant, and, whilst living in India, figures including V.K. Krishna Menon, Jawaharlal Nehru, and Indira Gandhi. She also completed significant public commissions in the UK, most notably her large-scale sculpture of Mahatma Gandhi in Tavistock Square, London. As such, Brilliant’s works are incredibly powerful documents of the political, cultural, and social developments taking place across the world throughout the 20th century.Please refer to department for condition report
