Kurt Schwitters was held in the capital for a year during World War Two
A bust of an artist who was held in an internment camp will be displayed in Hutchinson Square.
Kurt Schwitters was born in Germany and was arrested in the UK as an 'enemy alien' and brought to the Island in 1940 where he was interned for a year.
The bust has been designed by Anthony Padgett and Douglas Council says it will apply for Isle of Man Arts Council funding for a local artist to design a plinth.
The local authority has agreed to remove a sundial and replace it with the statue once complete.
