'The Wealth of Nations'

1993 sculpture by Sir Eduardo Paolozzi for the Royal Bank of Scotland; South Gyle, Edinburgh.

Its title may be a respectful tribute to the most famous work of Adam Smith, the father of modern economics, but its Einstein quote suggests that Paolozzi had a different view of our nation's riches from those who commissioned him.

"Knowledge is wonderful, but imagination is even better ". Einstein
