This is Australia’s first monument to the famous Scottish poet Robert Burns and his dog. It was carved from marble in Italy by sculptor John Udny and is inscribed with quotes from the writer himself and features beautiful patterned tiles at its base. This sculpture tells us much of Ballarat’s Scottish history by placing their most revered poet and ballardier of Auld Lang Syne at the corner of Lydiard and Sturt Streets. The local design was carried out by artist John Undy in Carrara marble and placed with this scene. The proud figure of Burns faces west and is accompanied by his collie dog with a book purposely hanging in his hand and a pencil in the other as his constant companions. Burns is mounted on a plinth engraved with some beautiful Burn’s poetry and surrounded by art deco styled tiling and a cast iron palisade.

Roscoe drew on primary sources including papal documents, letters, and contemporary accounts, and supplied extensive footnotes and references. This second volume, the subject book, continues the narrative. Roscoe's work also traces Leo's patronage of scholarship and the arts he even had Sante Pagnini's Hebrew translation of the Bible transcribed and prepared for printing at his own expense against the backdrop of the Italian Wars, the rise of the Reformation, and Leo's controversial use of indulgences, the very practice that Martin Luther denounced in his 95 Theses.shipwrecked-coast, flagstaff-hill, flagstaff-hill-maritime-museum, warrnambool, maritime-museum, shipwreck-coast, flagstaff-hill-maritime-village, shipwrecked-artefact, book, pattison collection, warrnambool library, warrnambool mechanics’ institute, ralph eric pattison, corangamite regional library service, warrnambool city librarian, mechanics’ institute library, victorian library board, warrnambool books and records, warrnambool children’s library, the life and pontificate of leo the tenth vol 2, william roscoe
