Visiting the Barbara Hepworth Museum & Sculpture Garden gives a remarkable insight into one of the twentieth century’s most important sculptors. Sculptures in bronze, stone and wood are on display, with paintings, drawings and archive material. The subtropical garden was an essential part of Hepworth’s creative process and she made many of her most famous works there. On her death in 1975 it became a permanent setting to exhibit her works. Since 1980 Tate has managed both studio and garden.

Gravel paths lead you in between exotic plantings to her workshop. There is a raised pond and there are glimpses of the sea. Barbara Hepworth was one of the Nation´s greatest craftsmen and more of her works can be seen at the Tate Gallery in St Ives.
