Andries Carpentière


Andries Carpentière or Charpentière was a Dutch or French sculptor active in Britain in the early 18th century. His name is sometimes anglicised as Andrew Carpenter. He worked in both marble and lead.

Biography

He was first recorded in London in 1702. For some years he worked as principal assistant to John Nost before setting up his own studio – by 1714 he had established a lead-statue-making business on Piccadilly and he produced several garden sculptures in that material. He worked at Cannons for James Brydges, 1st Duke of Chandos and at Wrest Park.
