DescriptionNellie Stewart memorial in Botanic Gardens, Sydney, Jun 2013.jpg
English: Sandstone pillar memorial to Eleanor (Nellie) Towzey Stewart (1858–1931) with bas relief and plaque, Botanic Gardens, Sydney.
Bronze bass relief made by Charles Henry Eccles (1938) with text:
'In memory of a beloved Australian actress Nellie Stewart died 21st June 1932.'
'CH Eccles 1938'
The bronze records an incorrect year of death - it should be 1931 not 1932.
