Art & Heritage Collections

During this summer, the Art & Heritage Collections team invite you to enjoy public art on the North Terrace Campus.

Where better to start but on the North Terrace frontage with the sculpture of Sir Thomas Elder. This sculpture was commissioned by public subscription and was erected in 1903 to commemorate significant bequests to the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide by Sir Thomas.

The sculpture has an imposing presence on campus and is a fine example of work by the renowned British Imperial artist Edward Alfred Briscoe Drury.
