The inscription reads as follows: 'This sculpture is dedicated to the memory of Dr Raymond Hughes, a GP in Roehampton for 30 years, and his wife Dorothy. Dorothy Hughes was a committed supporter of the Friends of Queen Mary's Hospital, Roehampton for 16 years until her death in 1999. Brian Alabaster sculpted this piece of his son Sam, who has downs syndrome, being read to by his grandfather, Dickie'. The complete sculpture is shown here: Image
