Description/Remarks | Bass designed and produced the cast-bronze, portrait head bas-relief located on the main standing stone, as well as the copper alloy dish for the fountain, working in collaboration with Associate Prof. Peter Spooner (School of Architecture and Buildings), who designed the overall scheme - placements for the fountain's dolorite boulders, the sandstone coping, and the earlier plantings which are no longer present. |
