Description: "Takes the observer step by step through the stages by which a well-known sculptor creates a monumental bronze group interpreting the theme, 'Progress through Human Endeavor.' After completing a sketch, the sculptor constructs lead wire skeletons on which he builds up figures from wire frames. Bit by bit, the figures take form under the sculptor's deft touches, and the group is completed. Measurements are then taken, from which a large sized group is reproduced to scale. From this the bronze replica will be cast." Georgia
