Product Description
The Black Country is an area historically known as the cradle of the Industrial Revolutiona thriving region built around deep coal seams, conjuring up images of fiery red furnaces by night and black, sooty citadels by day. Yet today the resource-rich region also features many striking public sculptures. This volume provides a comprehensive catalogue to all of the historic sculptures and public monuments in Staffordshire and the Black Country. George Noszlopy catalogues each individual sculpture in detail and includes information about the sculptor, the sculptures historical and artistic significance, the commissioning agent, and the date of installation. The volume also features 350 black-and-white photographs that document the diverse and rich beauty of the regions public monuments. The ninth volume in the widely acclaimed, award-winning Public Sculpture of Britain series, Public Sculpture of Staffordshire and the Black Country is an invaluable resource for British historians, art scholars, and travellers alike.
