Description edit
The piece is made of four separate parts, three of which are described by Roger Berthoud, Moore's biographer, as being stirrup-shaped; the fourth is a large sphere.[2]
Casts edit
One cast is situated in the Karlsplatz in front of the Karlskirche in Vienna,[3] where it was installed in 1978[4] – initially to complaints that it disrupted the views of the historic church.[5] Another is sited at the headquarters of Deere and Company in Illinois.[6]
