Located near the west entrance to the Capital Center, this sculpture is the original cast of this work. A second cast was created by the artist and submitted for consideration in the 3rd Rodin Grand Prize Exhibition in 1990. The invitation to participate in this exhibition came after the president of the Hakone Open-Air Museum in Japan saw an image of this piece installed in Indianapolis. Frudakis won the Hakone Award for the work, and the second cast was purchased by the museum for its permanent collection.
