Description
Digital image of Chicago's The Bowman rendered through a filter to achieve a more stylized effect.
Situated in Grant Park, Michigan Ave. at Congress Parkway, Chicago, Illinois. The Bowman, one of two monumental bronze sculptures by Ivan Mestrovic, dating back to 1928, intended to commemorate the Native American and symbolize the struggle to settle this country. The figures are lean and muscular, tensed for the actions of hurling a spear and releasing an arrow. Mestrovic has heightened the forcefulness of these gestures by making viewers use their imaginations to supply the missing weapons. Although they are modeled in-the-round, the equestrians are viewed to their most monumental effect as relief silhouettes against the sky.
