Wall with Frieze and plaque

Garden Name: Czech Garden

Date: 1970


Approximately 30 foot by 12 foot masonry wall with sculpted frieze along the top and surmounted by, originally, four busts:  Tyr, Smetana, Nemcova and Perkyne.  See individual bust listings for biographic details. See individual listings for the frieze and plaque details.  In 2010, a Nemcova bust replica returned to join the original Smetana bust.  The remaining two are to be replaced in the future.  Clearly this wall and its busts and plaque are the dominant, visual feature of the Garden Wall
