Description

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

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]
