Seward Johnson (1930 – 2020) was born in New Jersey and after an early career in painting, turned to sculpture. He created more than 450 life-sized or large-scale realistic bronze scultures that have been exhibited around the world bringing a unique voice to the world of art in public spaces. He crafted sculptures of people pursuing ordinary day to day activities.

The Willowwood Arboretum offers a peaceful retreat for visitors to discover Seward Johnson’s iconic lifelike sculptures nestled unexpectedly yet harmoniously within the gardens, meadows and landscape.
