The Hesperides were the protectresses of The Golden Apple Tree. They are described in the myth about the 12 works of Hercules.

The sculpture is curvy in shape. The Hesperide sings, but she looks more like she'd be screaming, and her hairs, with giant dreadlocks, are looking like medusa's snake-hairs.

Nearby, there's a fountain and benches.

The sculpture was created by Roswitha Maria Farnsworth in the year 2006.
