Alaska. Ketchikan, bronze sculpture "The Rock"
It depicts seven life-size figures. Aspects of Ketchikan's past.
Chief Johnson, the lumberjack - the fisherman - the miner - the aviator - an elderly woman and an elegant lady.
In this way, prominent Alaska Natives, the logging, fishing and mining industries, the town's historic heavy reliance on air links and - despite its relative isolation - its maintenance as a centre of cosmopolitan fashion are all incorporated into the work.
