              Workmen and the statue of Minerva on the pavement of John Adam Street before being installed on the pediment of Society's House
              RSA/AD/MA/302/19/51 · Item · 26/5/1994
              Part of Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce (RSA)

              The figure of Minerva, representing arts, is holding a shield bearing the Gorgon's head and a spear. Three statues were commissioned by Sebastian de Ferranti, a former Vice President of the RSA, to be installed on the pediment of the house as originally proposed by Robert Adam, the architect. The figures were made by Plowden and Smith.
