Sculpture
The oldest piece is an impressive carved-oak altarpiece from the Netherlands, which dates from the late 15th century. There is a selection of works by John Angel (1881-1960) and other early late 19th and 20th century classical pieces by sculptors such as Antonio Canova (after), Frederick J Halnon (1881-1958) and Henri Fonderie (attrib.).
Other highlights include sculptural works and reliefs by such prominent modern British artists as Mary Martin, Barbara Hepworth, Michael Ayrton and Peter Thursby.
