Jacob Epstein (1880-1959) ranks among the finest and most influential sculptors of this century. This biography traces his often turbulent private life and assesses his sculpture and paintings. It also describes the frequent outrage his public works provoked, such as the banning of the Tomb of Oscar Wilde in Paris to the daubing of Rima in Hyde Park with swastikas.
