The ultimate smart problem-solver! A homage to the French physicist, François Arago. The artist might well have outdone him with this one – a work as smart as the man himself.

Directions

Facing the bust, carry on along the same path on your right – parallel to the railing. At the fork in the path, head right towards the exit. Can you spot a metallic circle on the pavement? It’s just by the gate on your left. It says ‘Arago’ and is one of the 135 medallions in honour of physicist François Arago.
