    Description: 
    Two large oval stones, one made of granite and one made of bronze to look like stone, are placed side by side in the center of a circular brick mound. Each stone is sliced into four sections, allowing the sculptor to juxtapose the rough exterior sides with the smooth interior surfaces. One end slice of each stone has been switched so that the bronze stone has one granite end and the granite stone has one bronze end. Around the outside of the brick mound is an elaborate brick and granite plaza with granite seats and an iron railing along an entrance ramp.
