Renowned American artist Adolph Alexander Weinman crafted the exquisite bronze sculpture titled “Rising Day.” Standing at 25 inches tall and 24 inches wide, this allegorical figure captivates with its dark brown patina. Originally created as a fountain figure for the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco, “Rising Day” carries the legacy of its historical significance.

Weinman’s artistic genius shines through in the graceful lines and Greco-Roman attire adorning the figure. Symbolizing the diminishing daylight, this sculpture exudes a sense of tranquility and beauty. The base of the sculpture bears inscriptions of Weinman’s name, along with “Roman Bronze Works N-Y,” marking its origin and the artist’s hand in its creation.

With its classical elegance and artistic mastery, “Rising Day” serves as a remarkable precursor to the art deco style that would emerge later. This bronze sculpture, bearing Weinman’s signature, is not only a testament to his skill but also a valuable addition to any art collection. Embrace the timeless allure of “Rising Day” and let its captivating presence elevate your space.
