Winged Figure of the Republic

Description

The 30 feet (9.1 m) high bronze figures, dubbed "Winged Figures of the Republic", were each formed in a continuous pour. To put such large bronzes into position without marring the highly polished bronze surface, they were placed on ice and guided into position as the ice melted.

One of the better photos of these. It is hard to get a good angle on them, but you seemed to have done so.
