queen alexandra memorial, marlborough rd., london

queen alexandra memorial, marlborough rd., london
detail of the odd but brilliant last major work by alfred gilbert, with faith and hope kneeling by charity. it is supposed to be a fountain, though the water is hidden in a grilled trough, and the inclusion of two large lights rather overbalances the composition. like his entire oeuvre, rather a curate's egg, but a truly splendid one.
