Description
The Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum is a museum and art gallery in Glasgow, Scotland. The building houses one of Europe's great civic art collections. Since its 2003-2006 refurbishment, the museum has been the most popular free-to-enter visitor attraction in Scotland,and the most visited museum in the United Kingdom outside London. It is located on Argyle Street, in the West End of the city, on the banks of the River Kelvin (opposite the architecturally similar Kelvin Hall, which was built in matching style some years later, after the previous hall had been destroyed by fire). It is adjacent to Kelvingrove Park and is situated immediately beneath the main campus of the University of Glasgow on Gilmorehill.

Description
Kelvin Way Bridge Of all the many crossings of the Kelvin, this bridge has the most chequered history. City Engineer A B McDonald's single-arch red sandstone bridge was completed in 1914, the same year in which sculptor Paul Raphael Montford won a competition to produce allegorical figures for the four corners of the parapet. The outbreak of war, however, not only led to delays in the production of the bronze sculptures, but also increased the cost of the works. Over the next seven years, the artist and the City Corporation — which had harboured doubts about the cost of ornamental statuary long before the bridge was built — bickered over the overall budget, the many delays and the release of fees. Ultimately, the figures — representing Peace and War (NE), Philosophy and Inspiration (NW), Navigation and Shipbuilding (SE) and Commerce and Industry (SW) — were unveiled in the summer of 1926 to much critical acclaim.
