This sculpture is a larger version of the stone carving at the Gibberd Garden. The cast was taken by Underwood shortly before his death.
Although the clenched fist is associated with the symbol of Republican solidarity with those suffering in the Spanish Civil War, Underwood saw it standing as part of a greater peace movement. Michael Chase, former director of the Minories Gallery, who joined Harlow Art Trust in 1980, secured the piece from the Underwood family. He wrote that Underwood ‘dreamed of a giant anti-war memorial on the cliff-top above Dover… the fist is closed in a gesture of peace not war (with the thumb enclosed by the fingers)’. Underwood served in the First World War.

The bronze was moved into the Gibberd Gallery while its plinth in the Stow was being repaired and it returned to the Stow in 2014.
