context_section_description: Positioned in the entrance lounge, and behind the reception desk, this 10 ft 5 in (3.175 m) × 16 ft (4.877 m) bas-relief was carved in situ from Portland stone by Eric Gill with Laurie Cribb carrying out the lettering. 
  The bas-relief has the inscription "There is good hope that thou mayest see thy friends", and "Homer/Ody" in smaller capitals.  This is repeated in Greek with "Eric G" added.  Odysseus is shown being welcomed from the sea by Nausicaa, who is attended by three female servants. One carries a bowl of fruit, the second a jug and goblet and the third a garment. The panel is based on three episodes of a story in Homer’s Odyssey.
