Charity, Uni Melbourne
The bronze sculpture known as Charity being kind to the poor, now located at Melbourne Uni's Parkville Campus, on the lawn outside the Baillieu Library, was originally the ‘crowning piece’ of the massive entrance portico of the Equitable Life Assurance Society headquarters in Collins Street. The building was demolished in the late 1950s and the owners presented the sculpture to the University.
Created by architect Edward W. Raht and sculptor Viktor Tilgner (de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viktor_Tilgner) at the Imperial Art Foundry in Vienna in about 1893, the substantially-scaled Charity, sheltering a huddled family, is a clear statement on the advantages of buying life insurance. Originally situated at the Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning’s Mount Martha site, it was relocated to its present location in 1981.
