Own a bronze of Britten as a Boy.
To greatly boost fundraising, our sculptor Ian Rank-Broadley is casting three strictly limited editions of 10 casts each, 30 in total, of his original maquette for the full-sized statue. The three editions will measure 18, 24 or 36 inches high. Each cast will be made to order and will take approximately 14-16 weeks.
Each cast will be overseen by Ian, visiting Castle Fine Arts Foundry, inspecting the waxes, metalwork and patination. Each cast will be stamped with the artist’s monogram ‘IRB’ and edition number. A numbered certificate will also be included, signed by Ian Rank-Broadley and our patrons: Sophie and Tamara Britten, the great-nieces of Benjamin Britten — making these exceptional collectors pieces.
By purchasing a bronze you will also have your name added to the Donors’ Plaque located close to statue.
Works of art such as these, in bronze, by such a distinguished sculptor are an investment. Your purchase will contribute significantly to the installation of the full-size statue of Britten as a Boy in Lowestoft, inspiring future generations of children to achieve their ambitions.
Thank you.
