Sculptor, painter, poet and artistic historian, Agnes Yarnall has, since the age of six been breathing life into her art.

Miss Yarnall’s elaborate and varied sculpted works include her groupings of “Clowns”, “Animals” and “The Civil War” – all which have received international acclaim from the most discriminating critics.

She is author of “Pandora and Other Poems”, “Hesperidies and Other Poems”, “An Attemped Evocation of the Civil War”, “Circus World”, “Poems of Sentiment and Recollections” and “Indian Summer.”
