The sculpture entitled "Bronze Horse" was on display in a small nook
on the Clay Street side of the park. Notice the steps around the edge
that provided comfortable seating for lunch and general relaxation.

Side view of the horse with One Embarcadero Center
in the distance behind. Notice there is no gate that can close, so the sculpture can be
visited anytime the park is open.

It is not always easy to spot the artist's signature on
a sculpture. Here the signature was found almost scratched
into the horse's rump.

The statue is mostly smooth but for a few small patches such
as this place on the left side of the horse. It is unclear from
this one example if this is a common technique for this artist.
