Snow Cap
That this appears to be a painting is a tribute to the skills of the artist with a little help from Magic Hour light.
It's a 25-foot-tall sculpture currently on display outdoors on Michigan Avenue in Chicago.
God Bless America
Sculptor: J. Steward Johnson
The newest piece by sculptor Seward Johnson from the series Icons Revisited.
The 25-foot-tall couple taking center stage reimagines Grant Wood’s American Gothic (1930), a popular painting in the Art Institute of Chicago’s permanent collection.
"I had in mind something which I hope to convey to a fairly wide audience in America -- the picture of a country rich in the arts of peace; a homely lovable nation, infinitely worth any sacrifice necessary to its preservation."
- Grant Wood, in a statement accompanying his final painting
