Long Description:
A sleek gazelle is presented in a characteristic movement known
as wheeling. The sculpture was adapted from the central
figure of the Levi L. Barbour Memorial Fountain on Belle Isle in
the Detroit River. Placed around the fountain basin are a
hawk, rabbit, grouse and otter representing animals native to the
region. In 1936, this design won first place in a national
competition. In 1972 it won the purchase prize in a
competition sponsored by Brookgreen Gardens. ~~from plaque
