A fine example of Ferber's mid-career work, the sculpture gracefully synthesizes the figural representation of his early years and the highly abstracted, non-referential forms of his later years. The verticality of the piece and the anthropomorphic appendages lend a human dimension to the stoic, monumental design. Signed and dated on side.
