This beautiful life size representation of Neptune, is a replica of the statue found on the boardwalk at 31st street. It might actually have been produce before the bigger one, it is signed by Paul DiPasquale, dated 2004 and numbered N/6.
In this bronze statue, Neptune holds a trident with his right hand and his left hand is resting on a turtle. Neptune seems like he is standing in water almost waist high, he is surrounded by animals from his realm, two dolphins, an octopus, a few fish and a starfish.
I spent some time trying to find out what was the origin of this smaller Neptune. I found a picture of Paul DiPasquale with one statue this size, (
