"UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER"


BEAST

Our town has been purchasing realistic lifesize statues to display throughout the downtown. Most of them have been statues that fit in with a local theme. A statue of a father teaching his daughter how to ride a bike is located alongside the main bike trail. But this one really caught my eye! Not sure where this one really fits in, but I think it is a great piece of art!

An iconic sculptural image that portrays the celebration of the end of WWII. It is nice to see a sculptor has brought it to a 3 deminsional work from a famous photo. The fellows are right. It looks like you live in a nice town.

I love it! A sculpture to immortalize this famous kiss at Time Square as the war ended. I wonder how many people actually know the significance of that day when it was announced that Japan had surrendered and this photo was taken?
