Our sister in Austin adorns the western walkway on the north side of the state capital building. Her pedestal is a combination of polished granite and limestone block and mortar. It rises to a height of at least six feet. She appears to be in pretty good shape with all of her crown points in place and a beautiful natural copper color patina.
We have not visited this site and we would be grateful for any images and/or information about the history or current status of this sister. Please use our online form to submit your information. We really appreciate any and all assistance we can get on this!
