Tucked away on Howard Street this statue is easily missed - its discreet location selected not only because Judith orignally lived on the top floor of this building, but also because there was some controversy at the time surrounding a sculpture of a young girl being cast in bronze and placed on public display.
The original scuplture was only exhibited in public twice - the artist intended to send the plaster cast to England for bronzing, however World War II broke out and halted the plan. Before moving to Melbourne the artist instead gave the sculpture to Judith - who, in 2008 aged 80, gifted it to Perth City Council. The Council agreed to cast it in bronze and place on public display soon after.
Take a step back and also admire the heritage building now surrounded by modern offices.
On street parking is available - although highly unlikely during peak hours. As with all urban caches please be mindful of muggles (during office hours you will find the area very busy with smokers). Don't forget your pen!
