George Edward Wade

George Edward Wade (1853 – 5 February 1933) British sculptor, born in London. He was largely self-taught as an artist and is best remembered for his statues of royalty and politicians.

In 1929 Wade had two works dedicated in London, to Catherine and William Booth. He was the first General of the Salvation Army and she was the "Army Mother." Mrs. Booth presents a "serene and matronly figure", while he is "an Old Testament figure with eyes ablaze, beard flowing, finger pointing, medals mustered, and a small prayer book in his hand."
