This sculpture stands outside the Scottsdale Museum of the West. It's quite an elaborate sculpture with many intricate details all the way down to his moccasins that look like they are heavily beaded.
The back of the sculpture is just as elaborate as the front. I love the painted details on what represents a buffalo hide. The artist is Dave McGary. His bronzes are always very realistic and expressive. McGary's work is internationally known with sculptures in the U.S. Capitol National Statuary Hall, the Smithsonian and in the White House collection.

Oh wow! Such an incredible sculpture with stunning detail Sharon, love the touches of turquoise and the cloak is too fabulous 💙
Very powerful, Sharon!
Very impressive!
Very detailed, indeed.
Amazing sculpture.
Is that a painted bronze? It looks like mixed media to me, which is confusing (hides outdoors?). Fascinating piece.
It looks like one of those living-statue guys who stand in Trafalgar Square!
