Thomas Denman (sculptor)

He was born in 1787 the son of William Denman and his wife Ann.

[1] He attended the Royal Academy schools from 1807 and won their Silver Medal for sculpture in 1813.

[1] Although occasionally acknowledged as the true sculptor, Flaxman is regularly credited with works after his own death.

However, most of Denman's commissions seem to have come via the Flaxman studio and work gradually dried up.

[3] His sister Nancy Denman married the eminent sculptor John Flaxman.
