This one was probably made in the same decade — but it certainly appears to be post-modern — i.e. it’s an collection of tropes — like all the fal-der-ol printed on an American dollar bill. Bad sculpture — mediocre ornament — not even an attempt to properly space the rows of stone blocks — but at least it’s faults were a century ahead of their time !
