The Foundry - Morris Singer Ltd

Morris Singer is the oldest established fine art foundry in the world and has worked with most of the major sculptors from Thornycroft and Gilbert in the early days to Hepworth, Epstein and Moore, and many more recent artists like Eduardo Paolozzi, Michael Sandle and Philip Jackson.

For over a century and a half, skilled craftspeople at Morris Singer have worked with artists to create works of art, large and small, from maquettes to the magnificence of metal sculptures and statues, monuments, memorials and architectural metalwork.

Morris Singer has cast many historically important monuments all over the world - from the Lions and Fountains in Trafalgar Square (1867) and Figure of Justice atop the Old Bailey (1906) in London to the Victory Arch in Baghdad (1988), the Holocaust Memorial in Toronto (1991) and the Commonwealth Soldiers Memorial in 2002. We are also delighted to have completed the furniture and bronze work for the new Trafalgar Square piazza in London.

Major statues in London include Oliver Cromwell, F D Roosevelt in Grosvenor Square and the 1997 Monument to Raoul Wallenberg. Morris Singer also specialises in casting sporting monuments, including the statues to Sir Matt Busby (1996) and Sir Garfield Sobers in Barbados (2001), Shergar, Ireland (2001) and the statue commemorating England's 1966 football World Cup Champions (2003).

Morris Singer was selected as the foundry for the project due to the high level of specialist expertise that is needed for such an intricate, quality design.
