She had an extraordinary set of horns and very distinguished facial features. The year after I began the sculpture, a remarkably rare event occurred—the birth of a white bison calf in Lamar Valley of Yellowstone. The odds of such a birth in the wild are estimated to be 1 in 10 million. The enthusiasm for this mayor of event was balanced against the fact that the young one was never seen after the day of its birth. I tried in vain to see the young white calf, but didn't succeed. The photos and stories from others inspired me to  include a calf with this sculpture (which will include a slightly white tinted patina on the calf) as a tribute both to this individual female and that amazing white calf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSculpture Dimensions: 14\"L x 11\"W x 7\"H.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEdition size: 22\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: Full retail pricing on this bronze will be in the neighborhood of $2800-$3200\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-css=\"tve-u-18940937029\"\u003e\u003cspan data-css=\"tve-u-1894071bf52\"\u003eContact us for international shipping rates.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"George Bumann Sculpture","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49949173186850,"sku":null,"price":1750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0782\/0591\/1330\/files\/IMG_5477.jpg?v=1764002387"},{"product_id":"precast-offer-on-mini-hiker-girl","title":"She Hikes - Miniature","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"xdj266r x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs x126k92a\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eIn this sculpture (a miniature version of the larger sculpture offered), I honor the strong women in our lives.

Whether the strong woman in your life is a hiker or not, you feel their influence in life's journey. They go to bat for us, they do the difficult tasks that others shy away from, they take time to explain challenging situations to us and they influence us in so many ways. These amazing women touch us in ways that often go unnoticed in the moment, but they prove their meaningful role across the arc of time. This sculpture is not just thank you, but a monument to the strong women around us.
