Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden

Offers a remarkable insight into the work and outlook of one of Britain's most important twentieth century artists. Sculptures in bronze, stone and wood are on display in the Museum and Garden, along with paintings, drawings and archive material. Barbara Hepworth lived and worked in Trewyn studios, now the Hepworth Museum, from 1949 until 1975, and created many of her great works there.
