The art form of sculpture dates back well over ten thousand years. Nevertheless, the ancient Greeks were one of the first cultures to develop extremely realistic statues. Although the ancient Egyptians had already created many sculptures, very few if any were as realistic as statues crafted by certain Greek artists. Their focus on realism in sculpting probably gave birth to the legend of Medusa being capable of turning people into stone, and provided many a Greek garden and temple with beautiful statues that looked ready to come to life. A lifelike appearance probably became important due in part to the fact that many of those works were created for religious purposes and expected to be worshipped. Although worshipping such statues has long been a thing of the past, realistic Greek and Roman statues still make a classic, bold statement in any backyard.
Sculpted in 365 B.C., the Venus of Arles is a wonder to behold. Although you have to visit the Louvre to see the original sculpture, you can also display an excellent replica of the Venus of Arles in your own backyard. Complement the very classic beauty of this statue with elegant sculptures such as Hemera, the Goddess of Daylight or a statue that pays homage to Botticelli's Birth of Venus.

We use garden statuary for a number of reasons. A beautiful stone garden angel can transform an ordinary backyard into a classic place of peace. Realistic animal garden statues add a wild, beautiful touch to a backyard with carefully crafted details. Resin garden statues can also be used to augment the personality of your personal green space while reflecting your interest in the fantasy genre, a belief system, or love of the outdoors. Statuary can of course also be used to entertain guests and certain gargoyle statues accomplish this in a frighteningly easy manner.
Garden guests won't help but notice the Legend of the Cambridge Hopping Gargoyle Statue. The sly grin on the devilish face of this modern gargoyle shows that it is clearly up to no good. Resting on its haunches, it looks ready to hop through your yard on large, clawed feet, and take flight with long, bat-like wings. You can further entertain your guests by telling them that this gargoyle statue is inspired by unexplained sets of strange, hopping gargoyle-like prints that have shown up around Cambridge, England on several occasions.
Beelzebub, the Prince of Demons Gargoyle Statue, is another sculpture destined to be a topic of conversation. As this detailed gargoyle sits atop a Gothic plinth, it ponders its next move with an evil grin.

Statues of angels are a standard, classic addition to most gardens. No matter what the decorating theme may be, they fit in surprisingly well perhaps because they exhibit a blend of mysticism and otherworldly peace. Angels also come 
in more forms than most people realize. In addition to the classic, statuesque and majestic angels that grace the ramparts and entranceways to European cathedrals, there are angels in mourning, and sleeping cherubs.
There are also depictions of heavenly beings that are sculpted into wall decor and these make for exquisite decorations indeed. The Thoughts of an Angel Sculptural Wall Roundel is one such work of art. This simply beautiful wall decor is made timeless with rounded gentle lines, and peaceful details. Whether displayed on a quiet garden wall or in the intimacy of the home, it will act as elegant, lovely, angelic decor.
The Angel of Grace Bas-Relief Wall Sculpture is another item that blends the classic beauty of the stone angel statue with the elegance of detailed wall decor. This 18 by 12 inch bas-relief sculpture is a majestic decoration fit for a prominent place of honor on the wall of any room. This high quality replica of a work of art done by German artist Carl George Barth is an exquisite addition to a dining room or living room.

May is here and now that the warm weather is also here to stay, it's time to decorate the backyard with your favorite resin garden statues. While taking those beautiful stone garden angels and other statues out of storage, think about how you would like to decorate the walls or even the roof of your home. The warm, pleasant weather makes it possible to put fantastic greenmen sculptures on display and put decor up on the roof. Although very few items are fitting as roof decor, there is one that makes a distinctive, elegant touch to any home or business. This functional, well known item is the weathervane and it adds a big dose of personality to any structure.
The Windblown Wicked Witch Metal Weathervane can be placed up on the roof or set up in the garden. Either way, this distinctive rust-resistant aluminum sculpture seems to race with the wind as breezes blow through your neighborhood. Crown your home with this fun weathervane to give your place a classic, mystical touch.
If topping the house with a witch on a broom doesn't seem to work, try a beautiful Galloping Horse Full-Size Weathervane or a Full-Size Soaring Eagle Weathervane. Both of these functional decor items are beautiful, copper weathervanes that add a dramatic touch to any home or business.

Many a temple and sacred site in eastern Asia is guarded by the presence of stone sculptures carved in the likeness of a powerful, lion-like dog. They often flank the main doorways of temples and other places of importance to prevent evil spirits and bad luck from entering. These muscular statues are also a sign of strength and are believed to bring good luck to all who walk past their fierce gaze. They are designed to make a big impression and this is exactly why Foo Dog sculptures are an excellent addition to the entranceway of a backyard, home, and business.
Garden guests will feel a sense of awe and excitement as they walk past sculptures of the Giant Foo Dog of the Forbidden City. Inspired by the massive Foo Dogs that guard the Forbidden City in Beijing, China, the fierce dogs in these statues also wear power orbs and are set on top of regal, ornamental plinths. You can also put one or two at the front door of your house and business to make guests feel as if they are walking into a royal, mysterious palace.
While the Giant Foo Dog sculpture also works as powerful interior decor, the smaller (yet no less exquisite) Chinese Guardian Lion Foo Dog statues look breathtaking when put on display inside the home, office, or business.

Meerkats are one of the cutest animals on the planet. The black markings around their eyes and on their paws make them look like little bandits and when they stand on their hind legs, Meerkats look absolutely adorable. Given their charismatic attributes, it's no wonder that Meerkats are excellent inspiration for animal garden statues. Sculptures of these confiding little animals are a wonderful, seriously cute addition to any garden but they complement some garden decorating themes better than others.
For example, although you could put the Meerkat Clan Statue and a classic stone garden angel next to each other, that's not going to look nearly as good as pairing Meerkat sculptures with other African animals. Meerkats are native to the arid plains of southern Africa so they look much better when they share a garden with sculptures like the Lioness with Cub or Gigi, the Garden Giraffe Statue. Both of these sculptures are as representative of dramatic, amazing African wildlife as statues of Meerkats.
Meerkats also work very will with garden fairies. They have a similar mischievous appearance, are small, crafty creatures, and are right at home in flower beds and vegetable patches. They will look right at home when sharing a backyard with the Fairies of the Meadow and just about any garden gnome statues.

Garden fairies are one of the more exquisite types of outdoor statues. Sculpted with graceful lines, curves, and beautiful details, they can punctuate the backyard with elegance in a distinctly magical way. Although there are some fairy statues that show a bit of color, most are painted in classic, faux stone hues. There's nothing wrong with that classical look but it's still nice to have a few fairy statues that are painted in some of the same bright colors as the flower patches where they "live".
Folks hoping to combine bright colors with the elegance and magic of the fairy statue will be happy to know about the Pondering Pixie Stained Glass Sculpture. This wonderful work of art is one of the most colorful fairy sculptures you will ever see. Our happy little pixie is brought to life with delicate flesh tines, pink lips, and tousled brown hair. She also sports a beautiful green leaf dress with a reddish waist band but her colors truly show when the sun hits her sparkling stained glass wings. Inspired by the orange and pale blue shades shown by a Monarch Butterfly, her wings are made of 75 different, copper-foiled, hand cut pieces of stained glass. This pixie shines with color both inside the home and when placed outdoors and will become a bright spot in any garden.

Fairies are a natural addition to any garden. Flower beds and backyards are said to be the abode of those magical, mythical beings and they are rumored to help out with garden chores on moonlit, summer nights. Although you probably aren't going to see a live fairy anytime soon, you can still help bring them to life with sculptures like Fiona the Flower Fairy. This realistic, life-like sculpture captures the gentle magic of the fairy with exquisite details and a faux stone antique finish. Fiona will look right at home when placed next to a patch of flowers or beneath the shade of an old, majestic Oak.
The Twinkle Toes fairy statue is another quality fairy sculpture that enchants with life-like details. The expression on the pretty face of this fairy is one of curiosity and wonder as she ponders the butterfly perched on her graceful foot.
Although fairies tend to be gentle creatures, some also turn into fierce warriors when the need arises. Rhiannon the Archer is one such fairy and this best selling sculpture adds a striking, dramatic touch to any backyard.

Marble sculptures may have been a feature of Roman villas but the height of decorating the garden with statues was reached during the Victorian era. As the United Kingdom became the wealthiest country on Earth, well to do British families filled extensive gardens with exquisite sculptures. Stone garden angels, impressive statues of lions, and hundreds of other beautiful sculptures were displayed on the grounds of manicured estates. While filling the garden with statues during Victorian days was limited to the wealthy, at present times, garden sculptures are so affordable that just about anyone can turn their backyard into an elegant Victorian garden. Follow these three tips for a backyard that rivals the majesty of any Victorian era garden:
-
Put several classic garden statues on display: Classic sculptures of deities and creatures from Greek myths were a common feature of Victorian gardens. Display beautiful statues such as Hebe, the Goddess of Youth and an authentic replica of the Venus de Milo to give your garden an elegant touch.
-
Include a stone garden angel or two: Get an angel statue like the Glory del Cielo sculpture to add classic, angelic beauty to the backyard.
-
Buy one or more stone lion sculptures: Lions were displayed in Victorian gardens because they are a sign of nobility, power, and majesty. Give your backyard a noble look with the Lion Of Florence Sentinel Statue.
It becomes that much easier to turn your backyard into a Victorian garden for the next seven days because you get 20% off the regular price of all resin garden statues from today until April 11th as part of our Pre-Season Garden Statues Sale!

Angel statues don't just grace cathedrals, churches, and cemeteries. Sculptures of those celestial beings also look right at home in just about any backyard. They can add a sense of peace and comfort to your place and are among the most classic of garden statuary decor. It's no surprise that a lot of people love angel statues and some of us are tempted to make our own. We might get that idea from arts and craft magazines or simply because we love to create artistic decor for the home but when it comes to angel statues, you are much better off just buying them.
Making a beautiful angel statue for the garden is nothing like weaving, quilting, crafting home decor, or even wood carving. It requires a knowledge of either sculpting marble or knowing how to work with and make statues of carefully engineered resins. Once the resin statue cools and hardens, you also have to know how to paint it to give it a faux stone finish. Such endeavors are far from easy to accomplish and require a great deal of skill and training. In other words, it's the type of thing that is best left to artists and experts that create such beautiful and affordable works as the Praying Basilica Angel Statue or the amazing Monteverde Angel Statue.

The garden is meant to be decorated with statuary. Whether the backyard is used to grow vegetables, for dinner parties, or for playing badminton, it's also the perfect place for displaying a stone garden angel or a collection of classic Greek garden statues. Sculptures give your place a regal touch, allow you to express feelings about your faith, and can be used to add both drama and peace to the backyard. The fact that statues aren't carved from slabs of marble also make them much more affordable than the sculptures that graced Roman villas and Victorian era gardens. Although you could certainly find sculptors who are willing to create a marble statue for thousands of dollars,nowadays, it's far easier to buy garden statues that are made from quality resin.
Resins are used as the medium of choice for high quality statues because this material is much more affordable and weighs much less than granite or marble. The fact that it's also much more pliable than natural stone means that it can be used to create incredibly realistic animal garden sculptures such as the Catch of the Day Grand Bear Sculpture, or Zarien the Zebra. Although resins can be used to make beautifully delicate garden fairies, they are also engineered to last for decades (and should last for centuries with proper care).

The bust is a distinctive type of sculpture that makes an impressive, classic addition to any room. In addition to be being a thought-provoking sculpture, one of the other benefits of the bust is that it's small size makes it easy to display. Add elegance to the office and hope for inspiration with a classic bust of Minerva, the Goddess of Wisdom. This bonded marble resin bust is a high quality replica of an eighteenth century sculpture by Antonio Canova and could also be used to add a bit of classic elegance to the living room.
Many a bust also looks fantastic in the garden. The Apollo Belvedere Bust with Roman Column Plinth is a beautiful, striking sculpture similar to statues of Apollo that were shown in Roman and British gardens. Indeed, this item is a close replica of a nineteenth century British work of art and is given a faux stone finish to make both bust and column look even more like the original sculptures.
Beauty isn't limited to classical busts. Put the Nubian Kandake Sculptural bust on display to showcase a striking, beautiful bust of a Nubian queen and buy a bust of The Golden Shroud of Tutankhamen for your Egyptian-themed room.

Animals have been used as inspiration for art since the stone age. Although the types of animals that have been portrayed in paintings and sculptural form have changed over the years, artists still hope to capture their expression of natural, wild beauty. One type of animal that has become a popular subject of animated films, documentaries, and other art forms in recent times is the penguin. Penguins lend themselves to being one of the more popular animals because they have such a unique, striking appearance. Although they are definitely birds, these flightless animals seem to be in a category of their own. They zip through the cold waters of the southern hemisphere on flipper-like wings, have a peculiar waddling gait on seemingly legless feet, and look as if they are wearing tuxedoes.
It's hard not to like these dapper, aquatic birds and even more so when you put a statue of them in the garden. The Positively Penguins sculpture captures the strong bond between parent and baby penguin with realistic details and bold, hand-painted colors. The yellow feathers in the crest of the very realistic Rockhopper Penguin statue shows why penguins look like living works of art.
Whether you put these statues by the pool or next to the back door, these beautiful animal garden sculptures will make a statement in any backyard.

Frogs are some of the more endearing amphibians on the planet. While many of us would rather not touch the clammy skin of those cold-blooded creatures, we enjoy seeing these peaceful looking animals at a garden pond or on a rainforest hike. Their large eyes and wide, faintly smiling mouths give them an innocent look that many people find appealing. That rather cute look is easily adopted by frog-themed, resin garden statues and they make a cheerful addition to any yard.
Get Thurston, the Garden Rock Sitting Toad to add some color to the backyard pond. This realistic amphibian statue shows the same large, bulging eyes, half smile, and webbed feet as an actual frog. Hand painted in bright green and highlighted with subtle yellows and blues, this animal yard statue will demand attention in any backyard.
Pair Thurston with the equally colorful and realistic Ribbit the Frog Garden Statue. Although Ribbit doesn't sit on top of a stone, his crouched stance and bright eyes show that he is just as ready for jumping action as Thurston.
If you would rather put a more comical frog statue on display, you can't go wrong with the cute pair of Boogie Down, Dancing Frogs! Have these frogs strike a pose in the backyard to entertain guests and add some easy-going fun to the garden.
Save on quality frog sculptures and other animal garden statues from Design Toscano.
There are many ways to decorate the garden. The right stone garden angel or large Buddha statue can add a heavenly touch of peace and tranquility to any backyard, there are exquisite garden fairy and animal statues that can be hung from backyard trees, and gnome sculptures are an easy means of adding cheer. One of the most challenging ways to decorate the garden is also one of the most dramatic. Although it takes a great deal of patience, hard work, and knowledge to create beautiful backyard topiary, the end result can be breathtaking, living works of art. Fortunately, if you lack the artistic mindset and time to create topiary, you can still bring the beauty of this art into the backyard with topiary animal garden statues.
European style sculptural topiary items require nothing more than placing them into your garden to give it a beautiful, topiary touch. The Sculptural Swan is a lovely piece of decor that expresses the grace and beauty of a swan in green, faux leafy form, while the Bunny Rabbit will be a hit with kids of all ages. The Sculptural Flamingo also shows that statues of these stately birds don't need to be pink to be beautiful.
The metal frame and fade-resistant, faux leaf foliage used in these items turn them into permanent topiary that requires neither watering nor clipping.

Deborah from Florida reviewed the Giant Buddha Monument-Sized Garden Sculpture
Bottomline: Yes, would recommend to a friend.
Rating: 
Comments: This statue is definitely worth the money-the size is impressive and it really looks like stone. (without the disadvantage of weighing hundreds of pounds)
I was nervous to make such a large purchase without seeing it in person but I have no regrets as it surpasses my expectations. It is on our porch in the line of sight as you come through our front door and adds just the feeling I wanted. You will not be disappointed.
