Yorkshire Sculpture Park - Barbara Hepworth


Barbara Hepworth who was born in nearby Wakefield is well-represented at the sculpture park with an edition of her "Family of Man" installed on a lovely hill but it is this bronze piece, "Squares With Two Circles" from 1963, that really caught my eye. I've long been a fan of her work and it was wonderful to see this one!

    I love the idea of a sculpture park - seeing these in an organic setting , with the natural light changes would make every visit a new experience.

    This sculpture was created half a century ago but to me is still great today.
