George uV Colonial Pimp Daddy

George V welcoming his children and work units into the world, and with a rose for their mothers. From a statue outside the old maternity unit at Prince Alfred hospital in Camperdown, Sydney, created by Andor Meszaros in the 1940s. He is alsoresponsible for the other sculptures there, a hyperintense action-Surgeon or Obstetrician, and a heroic striding mother with child (who George gave a rose to earlier), all in what appear to be cast concrete
 

Under UV light - the hospital lettering needs to glow!

UV pimp daddy

 

Beginning of a painting of George V with a rose, in cast concrete outside the old maternity wing of Prince Alfred hospital, welcoming his new children and subjects into the world. (Droit de Seigneur!) There are a couple of other cement sculptures nearby, a mad surgeon in a gown, in seriously dramatic action pose, and a heroic mother striding forth with her new production

This is a daylight photo but I'm working in some UV colours to give it an eerie glow for the Museum of Fleas. This will probably be the flea with the highest rank in Debrett's peerage
