The city ofLiverpool has a greater number of public sculptures than any other location in the United Kingdom aside fromWestminster.^[1] Early examples include works byGeorge Frampton,Goscombe John,Thomas Thornycroft,Charles Bell Birch,Richard Westmacott,Francis Chantrey,John Gibson,Thomas Brock andF.W. Pomeroy, whileBarbara Hepworth,Jacob Epstein,Mitzi Cunliffe andElisabeth Frink provide some of the modern offerings. More recently, local artistTom Murphy has created a dozen sculptures in Liverpool.

While statues and sculpture are dotted throughout the inner city, there are four primary groupings: inside and aroundSt George's Hall; inSt John's Gardens;^[2] around thePier Head; and around the Palm House atSefton Park. Smaller groups are found in Old Hall Street/Exchange Flags and in and aroundThe Oratory.

TheQueen Victoria Monument at Derby Square, an ensemble of 26 bronze figures byC. J. Allen, is described in the LiverpoolPevsner Architectural Guide as one of the most ambitious British monuments to the Queen.^[3]

NB: the following list does not include the comprehensive collections held byNational Museums Liverpool, or the countless ornate features of many Liverpool buildings.
