THE greatest collection of statues and monuments in a public space in Scotland is to be found in Glasgow’s George Square at the heart of the city.  Yes, there are many monuments and not a few statues in cemeteries such as the Necropolis in Glasgow and Greyfriars Kirkyard and Old Calton in Edinburgh, while Princes Street Gardens has more memorials and statues, but nowhere in Scotland rivals George Square for the magnificence of its statuary in such a relatively small public space.    The Square itself was named after King George III and was deliberately laid out over 20 years from 1781 so that at the start of the 19th century it came to be a functioning civic space, similar to the piazzas in many towns and cities of Italy.
