(Utah, 1897-1987)

The Legend, 1977, edition 1/26, signed “Avard Fairbanks”, patinated bronze with wood base, 21-1/2 in.

Note: The consigner spoke to the grandson of the artist who stated that Fairbanks was commissioned by an attorney who later decided he wanted there to be only one in the addition. The only other evidence of this sculpture is a mold held by the Avard Fairbanks Museum. It is believed this may be unique.

, Provenance: Private Collection, North Carolina
