Own a bronze of Britten as a Boy.
To greatly boost fundraising, our distinguished sculptor Ian Rank-Broadley has created three strictly limited editions of 10 casts each, 30 in total, of his original maquette for the full-sized statue. The three editions measure 18, 24 or 36 inches high. They are made to order and take approximately 14-16 weeks.
Each cast is overseen by Ian, visiting Castle Fine Arts Foundry, inspecting the waxes, metalwork and patination. They are 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.
N.B. Due to our timeline for unveiling the full-size statue, customers who place orders after 4th July 2025 will not have their names added to the bronze donor’s plaque in the statue gardens.
