HIGHBURY QUADRANT, N5
'The Neighbours' sculpture at Highbury Quadrant Estate

II

Figurative sculpture. Commissioned 1957, unveiled 1959. Siegfried Charoux, sculpture, for the London County Council on the recommendation of the Arts Council. Cemented iron, four feet high. Two figures, realistically portrayed yet demonstrating an idealism of 'working man'. A strong and humane representation that well suits its setting, and demonstrating the range of the LCC's patronage.
