Marshall Wood (sculptor)


Marshall Wood was an English sculptor, medalist, and artist, and the younger brother of Shakespeare Wood.
Wood was born in Manchester, the son of Hamilton Wood, a merchant and manufacturer. He began showing work at the Royal Academy in 1854, and was a regular exhibitor for the next twenty years. He also showed work in Edinburgh in 1856. By 1871 his wife, children and two servants were resident in Reigate. The Art Journal credits Wood with having executed statues of Queen Victoria for Melbourne, Sydney, Montreal, Calcutta, and Ottawa. Wood also executed three portraits of the Prince of Wales and a bust of the Princess of Wales.
