The sculpture was an enlargement from an original made in the 1930s, modeled after a gray foal of a silver-gray Arabian mare the artist had owned. Corky was sited at Ashley Pond, as part of an exhibit held in 1993, by Shidoni Foundry, to commemorate the city of Los Alamos's 50th anniversary. IAS files contain related exhibition pamphlet and an article from the Los Alamos Monitor, dated May 2, 1993.
