Artist:SYDNEY MARCH, (1875-1968), exhib.1901-1935. March was a prolific sculptor of portrait figures, busts and heads of British royalty and nobility, and contemporary celebrities. He was one of a large family of sculptors who originally came from Hull. Together with his six brothers and sister Elsie, they began a sculpture studio in 1902 in Goddendene in Kent where each of them specialised in a different area of bronze casting and marble carving. Sydney executed many portrait busts of eminent contemporary figures including Cecil Rhodes and Edward VII. His other principal works were war memorials, as far a field as Calcutta (an equestrian statue of Lord Kitchener) and Canada (the United Empire Loyalists Memorial at Hamilton).
