Standing at Hyde Park Corner in London, the Royal Artillery Memorial has been cited by one art critic as the finest work of sculpture of the 20th Century.  Its creator, Charles Sergeant Jagger, was once described by Auguste Rodin as "The Master". Who was Charles Jagger? In this episode, we look at one of the finest sculptors of the human form to have lived, his work including the RA Memorial and his incredible piece which stands on Platform 1 at Paddington Station commemorating the dead of the Great Western Railway.  Jagger served as an officer in the Worcestershire Regiment and was awarded an MC for his actions at Neuve Eglise during the German offensive in Spring 1918 where he was severely wounded.  We look at the trials and tribulations that surrounded the creation of the Royal Artillery Memorial and look at his work on the magnificent "No Mans Land" Support the podcast: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/footstepsblog https://www.patreon.com/footstepsofthefallen
