Review:

The Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden is one of St. Ives' most beautiful attractions, preserving the studio and garden facility of the famed 20th-century sculptor, who lived and worked at the site between 1949 and 1975. The studio, which was known as Trewyn Studio during the artist's tenure at the site, is housed within a beautiful stone-built house that preserves all of Hepworth's original furnishings, along with several unfinished pieces that were being worked on at the time of her death in a fire. It showcases the largest collection of the artist's works on display anywhere in the world, including works presented within a full sculpture garden. Visitors can also view a queue of uncut stones that were still awaiting carving at the time of the artist's acquisition of them in 1950.
