Sculptures and Pottery

Ronald Pope usually ‘signed’ his sculpture and pottery with a Pi symbol:

Sculpture

The Pi symbol can often be found stamped into the metal at the base, etched into a stone base, or somewhere on the sculpture itself. It can be very small – you may need a magnifying glass.

Pottery

The Pi symbol can usually be found on the underside.

Paintings

Paintings were often signed with the letter R followed by the year. For example:
