The Ploughboy of the Western World: F.W. Pomeroy's beautiful 1895 sculpture of Robert Burns in Fountain Gardens in Paisley. Pomeroy was a leading member of the New Sculpture Movement of the late 1800s, which aimed to portray figures in a more naturalistic way, in contrast to the prevailing neoclassical way. This, I think, is a fine example of this approach to sculpture.
