Height of statue

[edit]

The image gives me the impression that the statue is towering over some trees, but one of the sources shows that it's about 60cm tall. Do any of the sources give its exact height? -- John of Reading (talk) 07:11, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ernest Rutherford memorialStatue of Ernest Rutherford – Per WP:VAMOS, which says, "For portrait sculptures of individuals in public places the forms "Statue of Fred Foo", "Equestrian statue of Fred Foo" or "Bust of Fred Foo" are recommended, unless a form such as "Fred Foo Memorial" or "Monument to Fred Foo" is the WP:COMMONNAME. If further disambiguation is needed, because there is more than one sculpture of the same person with an article, then disambiguation by location rather than the sculptor is usually better. This may be done as either "Statue of Fred Foo (Chicago)" (typically preferred for North America) or "Statue of Fred Foo, Glasgow" (typically preferred elsewhere). If the sculpture has a distinct common name, like the Bronze Horseman, that should be used." --Another Believer (Talk) 17:12, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
