Minerva
Sponsor: Bath Percent Club • Artist: Emma Rose

About the owl The Bath Percent Club and Emma Rose have collaborated to create their owl, 'Minerva', named after the Roman Goddess of the Arts, Magic, Wisdom, Medicine, Trade, Strategy, Knowledge and Poetry. Such a heady mix needed to be symbolically interpreted - a dream-coat of technicolour burnished with gold, copper and silver cloaks our owl, portraying her many talents and attributes. Minerva represents all the 190 contributing companies that belong to the Bath Percent Club, which aims to encourage charitable giving to better our city and its communities.
