Hidden away on the second floor of Lougheed House is a special sculture made by Calgary artist, Harvey Nichol. The Double Lougheed bust sculpture is inspired by the partnership between Senator Sir James Lougheed and Lady Isabella Hardisty Lougheed.

One side of the sculpture features James, while the reverse, which you can see in the mirror, honours Lady Isabella.

Both figures support a shared model of Lougheed House, which contains miniature replicas of artifacts, such as a knight, symbolizing Sir James’s knighthood and a Grecian figurine which is currently on display in Lady Isabella's bedroom.

Explore the museum to find this interactive sculpture, and turn the crank to see the details that bring together the public and private worlds of the Lougheeds.
