Notes | ||
The sculpture stands to the left of the centre of the garden close to a tall cypress hedge beneath a sycamore tree, in front of a garden fence. It is an abstract sculpture comprised of blue-coloured glass cut into slabs and assembled into a tear drop shape with a central aperture, set at an angle to the base. The base is a natural-looking, rough-hewn boulder. | ||
