Description
Entry for a competition held by the ICA. The aim of the competition was to create a memorial "to pay tribute to those individuals who, in many countries and diverse political situations, had dared to offer their liberty or their lives for the cause of human freedom". The competition itself was won by Reg Butler though the project was abandoned in 1960.
Only two of the four original figures survive.
