Eric Gill (1882–1940) was a British engraver, author, typographic designer and sculptor who played a pivotal role in the development of modern British sculpture. His work adorns some of the nation's most notable public buildings, including Westminster Cathedral and Broadcasting House. He has become a controversial figure following the 1989 publication of a revelatory biography by Fiona MacCarthy. Nearly 50 years after his death, it emerged that Gill had kept diaries detailing his shocking acts of sexual abuse, incest and bestiality.
