This design depicts a pumpkin, as if seen from above, with bronze vines growing from its stem and new fruit emerging from bronze flowers. The curved lines appear organic and naturally twisted around the central pumpkin shape.
Designers Jeff Laramore and David Jemerson Young of 2nd Globe, an Indianapolis–based artistic company, designed all 92 of the county sculptures featured on the outside of the Indiana State Museum. Their designs narrate the counties’ famous natives, historically significant events, or their cultural characteristics, and were fabricated and installed by various Indiana sculptors, carvers, glassworkers, metalworkers, and other artisans.
