John Nost the Elder / John van Nost

Born Mechelen, now in Belgium. Moved to England in late 17th century. His nephew, John Nost the Younger, carried on the business, and indeed we are not certain which one created the Geffrye statue. Other work in London: a kneeling Nubian in the Inner Temple Gardens.
