Legend of the Nine Maidens sculpture, Dundee

The Dragon is based on a local legend of the Nine Maidens. The dragon guards the east end of the High Street. The dragon sculpture was the concept of Alistair Smart, a lecturer at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art. Unfortunately he died just before he was offered the commission after winning a limited competition. It was Alistair's family who requested that Tony Morrow, an ex-student of Alistair's, take over the artwork. Tony took Alistair's concept and furthered the design into this exciting sculpture. The sculpture was commissioned by the Dundee Partnership. Source: Objaverse 1.0 / Sketchfab
