The statue’s design was inspired by a local donkey named Matilda. Donkeys have long been associated with Guernsey as one of its national animals, historically used as reliable workhorses for transportation on the steep streets of St Peter Port.

To ensure the highest quality and durability of the sculpture, the silica sol technique is employed during the casting process. Silica sol is a type of colloidal silica solution that helps to prevent the formation of white spots or defects on the surface of the sculpture. This technology enhances the overall aesthetics and longevity of the life-size donkey statue artwork.
