Born: 1630. Flensburg
[died] 1700. London Danish sculptor. Known for his Baroque architectural sculptures and garden sculptures. Son of a court cabinet maker, he was sent to Rome by Frederick III to train, but apparently never returned to Denmark. All of his works are in England, and while they have the characteristics of English sculpture, the influence of Italian and Dutch sculpture can also be seen. His representative works include the relief of Charles II Relieving London after the Great Fire (1674), and A Raging Madness and A Melancholy Madness (both 1670s, gate of Bedlam Hospital). His son, Colley Cibber, was a well-known actor.
