Harris’s son hits out at critics of statue erected in memory of father

A SON of Richard Harris has hit out at critics of a statue of the film star erected in his native Limerick.

Jared Harris, who attended the unveiling of the statue in Bedford Row last year, said he was dismayed and angered at the furore over the design of the bronzed work of Clare sculptor Jim Connolly.

Critics claim the statue does not truly represent the physical appearance of Richard Harris.
