I really like this, though looks like someone forgot to remove the painters tape from the base of the metal stands.

Eldon Garnet has some interesting public artwork around town, thoughtfully created with both context and aesthetics in mind.
 
The public art component here is quite silly. Ridiculous in fact.

Why ridiculous? Garnet has returned to the site some of the animals that would have been roaming these lands three hundred years ago. To do that, one generally has to cast them in bronze, and affix them to a plinth of some kind. If your comment concerns the vertical or upside down placement of some of the animals, I believe that fits with the 'nostalgic' reminiscence, or dreamlike place in the mind that these animals are meant to occupy.

That doesn't seem ridiculous in the slightest.

I pass this everyday to work and home. It's definitely eye-catching! Erm, Sherbourne, however, does NOT look as nice as it does in the final photo! Lol.
