Closest to the south bank is Astronomy, wrapped in her cloak and looking quizically at a globe held in her hands. Next is Fine Art, holding her palette and brushes in her left hand and gazing at a small nude statuette held in her right. She holds to her bosom a small leafy branch bearing fruit.

Then comes Education holding to her two children (one standing and one in her arm) and finally Local Government – surely the only statue of this subject in Britain?
