Sir William Goscombe John RA (21 February 1860 – 15 December 1952[1]) was a prolific Welsh sculptor known for his many public memorials. As a sculptor, John developed a distinctive style of his own while respecting classical traditions and forms of sculpture. He gained national attention with statues of eminent Victorians in London and Cardiff and subsequently, after both the Second Boer War and World War I, created a large number of war memorials. These included the two large group works, The Response 1914 in Newcastle upon Tyne and the Port Sunlight War Memorial which are considered the finest sculptural ensembles on any British monument.[2][3]
Although as a young man he adopted the first name Goscombe, taken from the name of a village in Gloucestershire near his mother's home, he was actively engaged with his native Wales and Welsh culture throughout his career.[3][4]
Biography
Early life and career

John moved to London in 1881 and worked as a pupil-assistant in the studio of
Other notable works from this period included Girl Binding her Hair, 1893, The Elf, 1898 and A Boy at Play, 1895.
Major works
By the early 1900s John had established himself as a sculptor of some note and began to receive significant public commissions.
John received a further number of national and international commissions, including several for war memorials. John's 1905
Before the outbreak of the First World War, John had been commissioned to create a memorial to the 244 engineers who had died with the sinking of the

The Port Sunlight memorial was unveiled in 1921, two years before John's Northumberland Fusiliers Memorial was erected in Newcastle upon Tyne. Known as "The Response 1914" the monument was commissioned to mark the raising of four battalions of volunteers by the local Chamber of Commerce at the start of World War I.[15] In bronze, John created a procession of deep-relief figures representing the volunteers and those they were leaving behind. The procession is led a winged angel, an allegory of renown, blowing a horn above two drummer boys followed by uniformed soldiers and men in civilian clothes, some of whom are saying goodbye to women and children.[15] Although created several years after the end of the war, the monument illustrates the mood of patriotic confidence and resolve that had marked a period at the start of the conflict ten years earlier and makes the work deeply poignant.[2] Writing in 1991, Alan Borg, a former director of the Imperial War Museum described the Port Sunlight and Newcastle memorials as the finest sculptural ensembles on any British monument.[2]
Personal life
John was made a Royal Academician in 1909 and became a corresponding member of the Institut de France.[8][11] He first exhibited at the Royal Academy in London in 1886 and continued to do so annually until 1948.[1] In 1942 he was awarded the gold medal of the Royal Society of Sculptors.[11] He was knighted at Caernarfon Castle in 1911 during the investiture of Edward VIII as the Prince of Wales for which he designed elements of the regalia and a medal.[4] John was influential in the development of the National Museum of Wales, having served on its governing council for over forty years and donated numerous art works to the Museum.[10]
In August 1890, John married the Swiss-born Marthe Weiss.[1] Their daughter Muriel married Luke Val Fildes in 1915, the son of the artist Sir Luke Fildes.[16] From 1892 John lived at Greville Road,
