Detail from Offerings of Peace


Cast in 1926 this statue is outside the NSW Art Gallery.
Peace offers the Arts and Plenty.
These are represented by Greek comic and tragic masks as shown here.

  1. Incredible artwork. Thank you for the lesson:)
    So much to see in this world but I will never actually get there. Nice to learn from others like you.

  2. What really irritates is that that the front of the AG is forever swathed in blue plastic and plywood, that seems to alternate left one season and right the next. When that ediface is to die for, to swoon over, to sit on and to contemplate from.
