This
bronze cast of First Spring is one of a limited edition of 100 by
sculptor J. Gail Geer of Roanoke, Virginia. The edition was
started in October 1994.
The
bronzes are made by lost wax casting, using a mold from the original
stone piece. The original piece was carved of white Colorado alabaster
and is now owned by a private collector.
Each
bronze is cast individually and hand finished. The pieces
are then numbered and signed by the artist.
