This single-arch sandstone bridge is in Kelvingrove Park and it carries Kelvin Way over the River Kelvin. The bridge is best-known for its four pairs of large statues designed by Paul Raphael Montford; these were commissioned in 1914 but not erected until the 1920s. The four pairs are Peace and War; Navigation and Shipbuilding; Philosophy and Inspiration; Commerce and Industry. Each pair of figures sits aside a carved pillar topped by dolphin heads and a lampstandard. This image shows "Philosophy" looking down at a human skull with the Glasgow University tower in the background.
