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.
