Scipione Tadolini's 1880 sculpture of Eve in the Kibble Palace glasshouse in Glasgow's Botanic Gardens. Originally housed in Kelvingrove Art Gallery, but was moved to its current, more appropriate, location in the 1930s.

I love the light on this shot, especially the way it highlights the monkey, who's looking straight at the camera, while King Robert looks off into the distance.

This iconic Victorian Glasshouse was originally built on the shores of Long Long in the 1860s, before being deconstructed in 1973, loaded onto a barge to be shipped to Glasgow before being re-erected in its current location.

Created by John Kibble, it was originally built at Coulport on the shores of Loch Long before being taken apart, moved to Glasgow and re-built at its current location in The city's Botanic Gardens in the 1870s.

It's based on a tale from a Longfellow poem about an arrogant king who was dethroned by an angel, stripped of his robes, and forced to assume the role of a jester with only a monkey for a friend.
