The book provides a detailed account of Gibson's life, from his early years in Wales to his rise to fame as a sculptor in Rome. It covers his training and apprenticeship in London, his travels to Italy and Greece to study classical art, and his eventual settlement in Rome where he established his studio and produced many of his most famous works.The book also delves into Gibson's personal life, including his relationships with women and his friendships with other artists and intellectuals of the time. It provides insights into his artistic process, his techniques, and his inspirations, as well as his struggles and successes as a sculptor.Throughout the book, Eastlake provides a vivid and engaging portrait of Gibson as both an artist and a person. She draws on her own personal knowledge of Gibson, having been a close friend and confidant of the artist for many years.
