Cuningham House Marble Statue

Location
Botanical Gardens, inside Cuningham House on first landing of right-hand staircase.

Description
Marble statuette of a woman with exposed breasts, wearing a form of head gear and leaning on what could be some form of mythological animal. We believe that it was first brought to the gardens as part of an exhibition. It is thought to have been carved in the 1860’s.
