When one goes into the patio area on the east side of the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts, one finds two works by Frank Fleming. One is The Magic Hoop. The other is The Till Fountain, which was created in 1994. This work combines a simple fountain shape with delightful animal and fish sculptures. There is a quotation from T. S. Eliot's work Little Gidding (No. 4 of 'Four Quartets') engraved on the fountain. The words are: "We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time." The complete work can be found at (visit link)
