Omschrijving

The first biography of sculptor Oscar Nemon (1906-1985), the forgotten artist behind some of Britain's most iconic statues. Oscar Nemon is one of the twentieth century's greatest sculptors, and his iconic portraits of elder statesmen and major figures displayed all over the world, including many in the Palace of Westminster, home of the UK government. He was a flamboyant personality who charmed those who came in contact with him, including towering figures such as Winston Churchill, Sigmund Freud, Queen Elizabeth II and countless politicians and celebrities, as well as a host of adoring women. His eldest daughter Aurelia has gone in search of this often infuriating yet charismatic man and reveals the stories behind his artistic and personal encounters with presidents, prime ministers, royalty and others. She chronicles her father's life from humble origins as a Jew in modern-day Croatia to his refuge from the Nazis in southern England and the life and career he made for himself in and around London with his British wife Patricia.
