About
Sculptor: Edward Davis. One of Stoke-on-Trent’s most famous son’s Josiah Wedgwood (1730 – 1795) belonged to the fourth generation of a family of potters. He established two pottery manufacturing bases in the city and became internationally known for his high quality ceramics including creamware and jasperware. Wedgwood is featured wearing formal dress of the period and in his left hand he holds a copy of the Portland Vase, a Roman artefact in glass, of which one of his factories made reproductions.
Have your say on public art in the city...
Stoke-on-Trent City Council is creating a register of public art to help inform planning decisions, related to any future regeneration schemes – as well as seeking to understand how people currently engage with public art in Stoke-on-Trent.
The authority already has a 72-strong inventory of public art installations across the city – some of which you can view here on the Visit Stoke website – and it is looking to develop the list even further – with the help of the city’s residents/visitors.
If you are interested in taking part – please click on the following link to complete the survey:

The engagement exercise will run until Wednesday 31 January 2024.
