Description Of Item | The Council minutes of 13 December 1859 record that the members had discussed purchasing a bust of Alison for the College. A sub-committee was consequently established, comprising the President and three other members, who were to inspect ‘an excellent model in clay and stucco in the studio of Mr. Brodie’. A receipt from May 1861 shows that the College decided to purchase the bust in marble from Brodie at the cost of £84.
