Born in Croatia, sculptor and architect Meštrović visited Leeds in 1915, shortly before some of his work was shown at the City Art Gallery by the curator at the time, Frank Rutter. Meštrović was introduced to the University’s Vice-Chancellor, Michael Sadler, who referred to the artist as the 'greatest sculptor of religious subjects since the Renaissance'.
