Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. George Rennie (1801 or 1802 22 March 1860) was a Scottish sculptor and politician. Rennie was the son of George Rennie, agriculturist, of Phantassie, East Lothian, and nephew of John Rennie, the civil engineer. In early life he studied sculpture at Rome, and exhibited statues and busts at the Royal Academy from 1828 to 1837. He also exhibited three times at the Suffolk Street Gallery during the same period. His most important works at the academy were: A Gleaner and Grecian Archer, 1828; Cupid and Hymen (depicting Cupid blowing on the torch of Hymen to rekindle its flame) and busts of Thorwaldsen and John Rennie, 1831; The Archer (which he afterwards presented to the Athenaeum Club) and bust of Wilkie, 1833; The Minstrel, 1834; a group of four figures in marble, 1837.
