Taken from the website, "A seated allegorical female figure representing Heritage holds a child and a sheaf of wheat in her right arm, and rests her left hand on an urn, which symbolizes the sanctity of the home. Carved in relief around the base are images of horse heads, cows, rams, tools, and a winged sphere."
