The Bronze Sculptures are formally named ‘A Day Out’ and were created by world renowned artist Marguerite Derricourt. They were commissioned by City of Adelaide as part of the final phase of the last upgrade of Rundle Mall.
Derricourt was also to some extend inspired by the well-known bronze wild boar of Florence, ‘Il Porcellino’. This symbol of the city was installed in 1612, and his snout has similarly been rubbed to a shine by visitors.
Each pig has a name: Horatio, Truffles, Augusta and Oliver.
