Sleepy Head

Head of Invention 1989 by Eduardo Paolozzi in front of the Design Museum.

The same artist did the mosaics at Tottenham Court Road tube station.

On the bottom of the neck it says

THOUGH HUMAN GENIUS IN
IT'S VARIOUS INVENTIONS
WITH VARIOUS INSTRUMENTS
MAY ANSWER THE SAME END,
IT WILL NEVER FIND AN
INVENTION MORE BEAUTIFUL OR
MORE SIMPLE OR DIRECT THAN
NATURE, BECAUSE IN
HER INVENTIONS
NOTHING IS LACKING
AND NOTHING
SUPERFLUOUS.

LEONARDO DA VINCI
