THE MONUMENT
Sibelius died in 1957but the monument was not unveiled until 1967. The decision to have a monument at all was that of the Sibelius Society, founded after the composer's death; the money for the project came mostly from public fundraising and the budget for the project was fairly modest. Forty sculptors from all over Europe submitted designs and five went through to the next round. The winning design was by Finnish sculptor Eila Hiltunen and the choice of her design led to a prolonged period of intense debate. Originally the design was to be only half of what you see today.

I can eat fresh raspberries in January, green beans in February, leeks in June, asparagus in October and strawberries for Christmas dinner.
