This sculpture, standing at 7 feet tall, was sculpted by the Nottingham based artst James Arthur Woodford RA, OBE (1893-1976). Woodword wanted to ensure that the statue was as authentic as possible and went to great lengths to research the stories of Robin Hood, period costume, and archery so that the finished sculpture would look as real as it possibly could.
The sculpture was commissioned in 1949 to mark the Queen's visit to Nottingham in honur of the town's official 500th annversary.
The Robin Hood statue is just a part of a group of sculptures on Robin Hood's Lawn. Set against the bank behind the statue are plaques illustrating tales from the legend of Robin Hood, along with smaller sculptures of some of his band of Merry Men, including Little John, Friar Tuck, Alan a' Dale, and Will Scarlett.
