The photographs begin with the fabricated bronze sculpture before
the patina was applied. The first picture contrasts the fabricated bronze with the
smaller white wood model. The final installation of the sculpture
which necessitated a crane is captured in the next series of images.
Finally, the remaining photographs provide views of the installed sculpture
on site, weathered by the sun and rain and cloaked in a maturing patina.
