Description

Oscar Wilde-mindesmærket er en samling af tre skulpturer i Merrion Square i Dublin, Irland, der hylder den irske digter og dramatiker Oscar Wilde. Skulpturerne blev afsløret i 1997 og blev designet og lavet af Danny Osborne.
Den engelske billedhugger Danny Osborne blev hyret af Guinness Ireland Group til at skabe en statue til minde om Oscar Wilde, som blev afsløret i 1997 af Wildes barnebarn Merlin Holland. Det oprindelige budget på IR£20.000 blev senere forhøjet til IR£45.000. Da marmor alene blev anset for utilstrækkeligt, blev statuen dannet af forskellige farvede sten fra tre kontinenter. Torsoen er lavet af grøn nephrite jade fra British Columbia, Canada, og pink thulite fra Norge. Benene er lavet af norsk Blue Pearl granit, mens skoene er af sort indisk charnockite og afsluttet med bronzefletninger. Statuen bærer også et Trinity College slips lavet af glaseret porcelæn og tre ringe – Wildes vielsesring og to skarabæer, en for held, den anden for uheld.
