This bronze statue of Scottish poet Robert Burns (1759–1796), stands along Art Gallery Road, in the Crescent Precinct of The Domain. It was created by Frederick Pomeroy in 1905 and stands at 2.9 metres high on a stone pedestal of Melbourne granite, mostly in the rough, with one polished course in the centre.
The Venus Fountain statue sits in the Main Pond of the Royal Botanic Gardens. The original sculpture was erected prior to 1880, leading up to the International Exhibition. The base of the fountain was surrounded by weathered rocks and large clam shells, which were later replaced by a sculpted crocodile. The badly deteriorating statue was removed in August 1990 and cast in bronze. It was installed in the pond in September 1994 but the original was lost in the process.
