Title: The Sculpture of David Wynne 1974-1992
Description: This new book documents and illustrates the most recent work of the sculptor David Wynne (born 1926), including Royal commissions, major public sculptures, smaller figure bronzes and wildlife subjects. The last book on David Wynne was published in 1975. This new volume now completes the picture up to the end of 1992.

David Wynne's public sculptures are familiar landmarks in cities and parks throughout Europe and America - there are nine in London alone. His smaller work is sought by collectors and museums all over the world. Public commissions include Boy with a Dolphin by Albert Bridge, Guy the Gorilla in Crystal Palace Park, both in London; God of the River Tyne in Newcastle; The Pasadena Bird Fountain in California; Grizzly Bear in New York State; and The Awakening Earth in Geneva.

His sculpture demonstrates an astonishing versatility of form and style. As an artist he enjoys worldwide patronage and the resulting commissions range from vast marble carvings, complex steel and bronze castings, to delicate human and animal figures.

This book includes contributions by David Wynne's patrons (among them HRH The Prince of Wales) and a catalogue of works. A special feature of the volume is its focus on the wildlife subjects and chapters on each of the larger sculptures, as well as work in progress for the Queen Mother's Gates at Hyde Park Corner, to be unveiled in summer 1993.
