Sculpture over the entrance of 155 Sansome by Ralph Stackpole. According to the Wikipedia article, which references the book Art Deco San Francisco: The Architecture of Timothy Pflueger by Therese Poletti and Tom Paiva, the Yosemite granite figures were direct-carved in situ on a scaffold over the entrance of the Stock Exchange Tower.

The georgian mansion was demolished in the 1960s. This post set up on what was the lawn in front of the house is inset with a victorian view of the same angle. Quite a difference.
Sgt. 1st Class Chad Stackpole, Sergeant of the Guard, Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, 3d U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard), places a rose at one of the four crypts of the Unknowns during his last changing of the guard ceremony, Mar. 14, in Arlington National Cemetery, Va. The placing of a rose at the foot of each crypt signifies a Sentinels' last and final honor before they leave The Tomb of the Unknown. Stackpole served at the Tomb for 22 months and will be reporting to Fort Bragg, N.C., for his next assignment as a company first sergeant. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Luisito Brooks)
View from the front door of the National Trust holiday cottage where I spent a week. In the evenings the woods opposite were full of crows, which I found oddly comforting.

Most of the Coit Tower artists had to incorporate various elements of the Tower's interior structure, like doors and windows, into their murals. In this photograph the doorway to the Tower's gift shop is seen surrounded by Ralph Stackpole's 'Industries of California' mural.
Ralph Ward Stackpole (1885-1973) was involved in the art and causes of social realism and especially during the Great Depression when he was part of the federal 'Public Works Art Project' (PWAP). In 1933, he successfully sought and obtained a commission to supervise a group of muralists involved in painting murals for display at Coit Tower in San Francisco, California. The project was called "Aspects of Life in California, 1934" and depicted scenes of agriculture, education, urban and rural life during that period. Stackpole's 'Industries of California' was one of the larger murals and pictured chemical, steel mill, cannery, news gathering, packaging line and other workers as cogs in the machines of industry. Stackpole meant the mural as a tribute to his close friend, the leftist Mexican muralist, Diego Rivera.

On his frequent ferry rides between Oakland and San Francisco to visit his father, young photographer Peter Stackpole was fascinated by even the earliest stages of the construction of the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges. Gaining access to the sites by making friends with the bridge builders, and armed with the then-new 35mm compact camera, he climbed alongside the fearless workmen to ascertain the most dramatic vantage points to photograph the progress of construction. These were the days of the Roosevelt administration, when large-scale Federal projects—new skyscrapers, dams, and bridges—were a means toward recovery from the Great Depression and a move to modernize America. Stackpole’s photographic essay documenting these landmark bridge-building projects capitalizes on the monumental scope of the physical bridge structures from dizzying perspectives atop the towers.

Stackpole quay is not only a beautifully peaceful spot but also very interesting to geologists (or at the very least, quite interesting). As you can see in the lower left hand of the pic the rocks are arranged differently to the ones in the upper left. This anticline (I think that's what it's called) is caused by a fault in the rocks running across what is just about the middle of the pic). Anyway, I didn't know any of this when I was there and discovered it from looking at Earthwatcher's great set of photos of the area (start with this one) which make a much better job of explaining it all than I can.
'Stackpole Head'
I posted a glimpse of this one before - a study done on location overlooking Broadhaven beach and Stackpole Head in Pembrokeshire.

Having had a wet day, I thought I would sort through my photos of stained glass windows. I love seeing the stained glass in our churches, and over the years have had the privilege to visit many Parish churches and photograph the glass.
Stackpole, a former grand estate is now a nature reserve after Stackpole Court was demolished in 1963. Its lakes are covered with water lilies in summer and dragonflies and damselflies fill the air.

First walk of the New Year brought us to the Stackpole Estate and Bosherston Broadhaven beach. Looking back through the images I've realised how rusty I've become, so will need to try to get out more with the camera in 2015!
