“Darwin has been a hero and inspiration to me since I first read the Origin of Species when I was sixteen. In contrast to the common depictions of Darwin as a elderly man, this statue depicts him in his final year at Christ’s College, looking forward to the many adventures and discoveries that lay ahead of him.”
