Philip Henry Christopher Jackson CVO DL (born 18 April 1944)[1] is a Scottish sculptor, noted for his modern style and emphasis on form.
His twice life-size (6 metre tall) bronze statue of Bobby Moore was erected outside the main entrance at the new Wembley Stadium in May 2007, to pay tribute to his effect on the game.
Philip Jackson was born in Scotland during the Second World War and now works at the Edward Lawrence Studio in Midhurst, West Sussex and lives nearby.
As the eye moves up the sculpture, the finish becomes gentler & more delicately worked, culminating in the hands and the mask, both of which are precisely observed & modelled.Jackson was appointed Commander of the Royal Victorian Order (CVO) in the 2009 Birthday Honours list.
It was announced on 6 September 2019 that Mr Jackson had been commissioned to build the National Emergency Services Memorial which was being backed by the Duke of Cambridge and Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
