The Builder, Vol. 79: An Illustrated Weekly Magazine for the Architect, Engineer, Archaelogist, Constructor, Sanitary-Reformer, and Art Lover; July to Dec. 1900 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The Builder, Vol. 79: An Illustrated Weekly Magazine for the Architect, Engineer, Archaelogist, Constructor, Sanitary-Reformer, and Art Lover; July to Dec. 1900
Inside the Academy walls we find the central position in the octagon hall occupied by another memorial work of Mr. Onslow Ford's, the seated statue of Professor Huxley, an exceedingly forcible work in regard to the head, and as to the rest, the sculptor has fortunately had the professorial gown to enable him to give breadth and sculpturesque treatment to the costume, and to escape the usual difficulty of modern costume. At the best, the production of full-size realistic portrait figures is but a poor employment for the art of sculpture, but this is one of the most satisfactory recent examples of it.
