Summary

Description
English: "Diana and the Loves". Moreton Morrell, Stratford. Lead. In its original location, now the Warwickshire College of Agriculture. Diameter 8 ft. (The Grade II listed house was built in 1907-08 by a rich American, Charles Tuller Garland, son of the co-founder of National City Bank in New York. It was designed for lavish entertaining. As a result of a fire in March 2008, almost all the richly-decorated interiors appear to have been lost.) Gilbert's own caption in a booklet promoting garden sculpture by The Bromsgrove Guild says: "Diana, the virgin goddess, exhausted by the chase, has fallen behind the fir tree (the emblem of chastity) and is imploring the water spouting from the tree to hide her from the Loves pursuing her and pelting her with flowers." ("Sculpture in the Garden") Here the statue is seen from the north-east.
