Statue of Field Marshal Jan Smuts G.V. II Memorial statue stands proudly since 1956, crafted by renowned artist Jacob Epstein. A majestic bronze figure in uniform sits atop a sturdy granite pedestal. The life-size sculpture depicts Smuts in full regalia with his hands clasped firmly behind his back. His piercing gaze stretches forward and slightly upwards as if gazing longingly towards the land of his birth - South Africa. He leans forward ever so slightly, shifting his weight onto his left leg, which is subtly positioned ahead of the right one.
