Charles Leighfield Jonah Doman FRBS (31 August 1884 – 19 March 1944) was a sculptor from Nottingham. [2]
Born in 1884, he was the son of George L. Doman, a stone carver and monumental mason. He trained at the Nottingham School of Art from 1897 to 1901, where he was a pupil of Joseph Else. Then he worked for his father and studied at the Royal College of Art in South Kensington, London from 1905 to 1908.
He married Selina Maud Alton in 1908 in Nottingham.
Sculpture which is visible in public buildings includes the Bust of Lord Trent at Highfields Park, Nottingham, Civic Law at Nottingham Council House, and The Port of London Authority building, erected in 1928.
