The Sheer Joy of Art
in the Garden
If you go somewhere and
you spot a piece of quality
sculpture in the garden
you know you are visiting
somewhere special. This is
a something recognised by
the wealthy over the ages
from classical times, the
renaissance and reaching its
pinnacle with the grand tours
by the aristocratic, the rich
and the knowledgeable in the
19th and early 20th centuries
in Britain.
Peter de Sausmarez is
no longer astonished at
the amount and value of
sculpture bought on line
and thinks it is growing
confidence with the internet
and the sheer choice
available to anyone who
can turn on a computer or a
handheld from the pleasure
of their armchair to browse
work gathered from the four
corners of the Earth.
