Brief description
"This sculpture of the renowned artist L.S. Lowry, seated on a Bench, was the first of six commissioned bronze statues produced by Escar UK Bronze for the Greater Manchester Council of Tameside, in the North of England
Lowry, who was world-famous for painting matchstick figures in industrial landscapes, lived in Mottram-in-Longdendale for nearly 30 years
This finely detailed bronze sculpture of Lowry is sited on a busy crossroads opposite the Post Office, just a few hundred yards from the now listed property known as The Elms, where he lived and painted for the last 28 years of his life."
