What a smashing sculpture this is!!
The weight of history is felt in the intense stare between the two former friends and then that beautiful marvelous view of Pittsburgh in the background - it all combines to create an atmosphere around the sculpture that honestly gave me goosebumps!!
I felt I was reliving history and the meeting of George Washington and the Native American leader Seneca even if it was in a very stylized form. I loved the intensity of the stare captured between the two protagonists. Another highlight was that I was with a local Pittsburgher & Yelper Phil G, and he knew so much info about the French-Indian- British wars and his descriptions about where the wars were fought bought the sculpture to living life!
One other thing to note - the view from behind the sculpture is just fabulous! Also behind the sculpture is the start for the Emerald View Park Trails.
If you are near the Duquesne incline, this is just a 5 min walk down the road and so absolutely worth it!!
