THE work of an artist who made his name sculpting a public monument to the Duke of Westminster has gone on show at a Henley gallery.
Jonathan Wylder, who lives in the town and has a studio in Nettlebed, will also be in residence at Henley Fine Art in Market Place two days a week.
The 63-year-old, who is best known for his bronze sculptures but is also a noted painter, says he hopes his involvement could potentially help inspire younger visitors to the gallery.
He says: “I remember when I walked into a stone carver’s studio for the first time and could not believe the smell of the dust, the dust in his hair, piles of bricks and carving away it just blew my mind.
