Item Number: 126588 Title: The People's Sculptor : The Life and Art of WILLIAM LAMB ARSA (1893-1951) Author: Stansfeld, John Price: Not Available ISBN: 9781780271620 Description: Edinburgh: Birlinn, 2013. cm., pbk., 140pp. illus. Summary : Tracing the life and work the life of Scottish sculptor William Lamb (1893–1951) this is a story of indomitable will and irrepressible creativity. The son of an alcoholic father and a survivor of the ‘lost generation’ who came of age in 1914, it was with courage and determination that Lamb overcame the obstacles life put in his path. Traumatised in the trenches at Passchendaele during the First World War and blighted by depression, Lamb was also severely wounded in his right hand. With characteristic resolve he retrained with his left hand – at Edinburgh College of Art and the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris. We regret to inform you that this title is no longer available. P.O.
