Summary

edit
Description
English: A bronze sculpture based on the parable of the Good Samaritan which depicts one man aiding another, had been a familiar feature at Selly Oak Hospital since it was erected outside the main outpatients department in 1963. Following the closure at Selly Oak the sculpture was transferred to the new QEHB in Edgbaston.

The work was sculpted by Uli Nimptsch after a commission in 1961 by the Charles Henry Foyle Trust, who donated it to Selly Oak Hospital. The Foyle Trust maintained the sculpture until the hospital’s clinical services moved in 2010. The Trust donated the cost of relocating the sculpture to its new location.

It has now been restored and given a new home alongside the pedestrian walkway between QEHB and University railway station.
