The Gardener, London Wall

myminifactory

This sculpture, named 'The Gardener', is located outside the Brewers Hall on the south side of London Wall. It is located in the small Brewers Hall gardens. The statue, by Karin Jonzen (1914-1998), was commissioned in 1971. The life sized statue, made from bronze, is on a low white stone plinth. It depicts a male figure, in working clothes, with his left knee resting on the ground. His right foot is planted on the ground and his right hand rests upon his right knee with his elbow pointing skywards. His left hand is touching the ground in front of him as if tending to a plant. His head is in a downward position paying attention to what he is doing. This is a pose that many will recognise. This object is part of "Scan The World".
