    Owner: 
    Located 2650 N.E. Waveland Avenue, Jensen Beach, Florida
    Provenance: 
    Formerly in the collection of Penick, Richard, 2650 N.E. Waveland Avenue, Jensen Beach, Florida
    Remarks: 
    Sculpture was acquired in Miami in January 1965 by Dr. Richard Penick and sited in front of his medical office in Jensen Beach, Florida. When Dr. Penick retired, the two physicians who bought his office insisted that the sculpture remain, serving as a beacon of good health care. The artist reportedly was inspired by how a human might be created to see his or her own back.
