This huge sculpture in Newark, New Jersey is called "Wars of America". The sculptor is Gutzon Borglum who did Mount Rushmore and also my beloved Stone Mountain in Georgia. The stone (granite) that this sculpture is carved from is actually from Stone Mountain.

Hi Debby !! That's a very impressive statue. It looks enormous, it must have been a huge piece of granite it was carved from. I like how you've photographed it from several angles to get as much detail as possible.
ReplyDeletewow that is an impressive display. typical "leader" in the front and his followers trooping up behind.
ReplyDeleteThose three are really impresive - love them all.
ReplyDeleteHi Debby! Wow, all impressive, especially the one with the buildings behind it.
ReplyDeleteThat is one huge statue! I can see why you had to take three shots for us to see the entire thing!
ReplyDeleteWow! A great choice for this week's theme!
Hi Debby. I love how you composed all of these shots from different angles. We can see the work of art in its entirety. With a subject as large as this it had to become the set of three.
ReplyDeleteI love the three, Deb! Impressive for their dimension, number of characters and the perspective...
ReplyDeleteA fantastic statue, depicting a whole story. Wonderful. Thank you for sharing your world with us.
