The first garden sculpture is believed to be a tree-shaped fountain made of pure silver in 1235 in a Buddhist temple. In the territory of the former USSR, garden and park sculptures appeared at the end of the nineteenth century.

At first garden and park sculptures were made in the form of trees and plants, then sculptures of animals, birds and people appeared.

There are several styles of sculptures, from antique to modern. The most commonly used styles are classical or antique. With the classical style, sculptures of plants and animals are installed. Antique style is created by sculptures of gods, mythological animals, installation of columns and capitals. Modern style of garden sculptures can be abstract or fantastic.

Europeans are very fond of animal sculptures. They install them at the entrances to the house. Crocodiles and elephants, parrots and monkeys can be found on garden lawns.

The zoological theme in garden and park sculpture is popular in our country. In every supermarket you can find sculptures of dogs, squirrels and other animals. In addition to the zoological theme, especially popular are fairy tale characters: gnomes, elves, angels. They are placed in different places in the garden and park.

Sculpture is always installed in the open space, so they are made of materials resistant to frost, precipitation and sunlight. Many materials fulfil these requirements. Sculptures are made of plaster, concrete, metal, stone, ceramics and artificial materials. The cheapest sculptures are made of plastic, polymer concrete and fibreglass. Sculptures were rarely made of wood. Modern biochemical technologies of wood protection and preservation have brought wood back to the camp of garden sculptures.

The selection and placement of sculptures is a whole art.

In a park or garden, sculptures always look smaller than their true size. Open space visually reduces their volume. Therefore, if you want the ‘sculpture’ to look life-size, you should make it half the size of the original.

For the harmony of the garden or park, sculptures should fit in with the style of the decoration surrounding them. Those who find it difficult to define the exact style of the garden and park may say that their garden is designed in the eclectic style. This style involves mixing completely dissimilar styles.

The historical style of design makes extensive use of sculptures of historical themes. Sculptures can be used to create a scene of a battle or an entire battle. Silhouette sculptures look like individual figures. They are placed within sight from every place in the garden or park. They look best in an open space.

The right placement and style of sculptures can change the look of a garden or park. Even the energy of such gardens and parks is completely different.
