Artwork Description
The cast bronze statue is of a young boy holding his fishing rod. The boy is life-size and sits on a limestone wall within the Jo Wheatley All Abilities Play Space. He has an excited expression on his face, as if he is reeling in a fish. His demeanor matches the playful and carefree purpose of the All Abilities Play Space.
