Perseus and Medusa
At the head of Cabability Brown’s mile-long lake, stands Perseus, at the moment he has slain Medusa, holding her head aloft!
This iconic statue is a 19th Century copy of Benvenuto Cellini’s original 1550s masterpiece, now at the Loggia dei Lonzi, in Florence.
The replica was one of the biggest free-standing bronze sculptures in the UK after being commissioned by the 2nd Duke of Sutherland.
No visit to Trentham could be complete without taking a dramatic photograph of Perseus and Medusa!
