Prayer is located on the beautiful grounds of the Philbrook Museum of Art in Tulsa. The sculpture is next to the landscaped waterfall that runs through the center of the garden area.

Prayer depicts a Native American in full headdress and breastplate, standing on a rock. He is looking upward, with his arms almost straight in front of him, palms up, in prayer. His mouth is open, indicating he is praying out loud.
