Great Martins

Private Residence, Sculpture Collection

Art Contact was engaged by Estate Manager, Tom Bream, to maintain and manage the sculpture collection at Great Martins. Our work involves annual inspection and cleaning, as well as restoration and conservation as required to preserve the collection’s integrity, condition, and visual impact.

Alongside maintenance, we have also commissioned new works to enhance and expand the collection. These include an Armillary Sphere by Border Sundials and a Panoramic Thames Map – From Great Martins to the Sea by Ewan Eason. Both pieces were selected to complement the existing sculptures and to add contemporary relevance to the historic setting.

This ongoing programme ensures that the Great Martins collection remains visually engaging, historically preserved, and carefully curated, blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary artistic expression to reflect the estate’s evolving legacy.
