Monument to Dr. Alison, at Edinburgh, 1845. Creator: Unknown

Monument to Dr. Alison, at Edinburgh, 1845. Sculpture in memory of Scottish priest and essayist Archibald Alison. The chaste and classical mezzo-relievo to the memory of Dr. Alison the author of the " Essay on Taste, " which has been recently erected in St. Pauls Chapel, Edinburgh, is from the chisel of Mr. Steil, who has already earned a high reputation as a sculptor, not only in his native Scotland, but throughout the country. The work in question is well calculated to increase his reputation, as much from its poetic design as from its beautiful execution. We have reason to know that the medallion on which the profile appears was pronounced by the relatives...Dr. Alison...was esteemed as a pious and earnest promoter and preacher of the doctrines of the Episcopal Church of Scotland. From " Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII
