This sculpture is at the Bradford Village Retirement Community, a perfect location for this particular piece. It is such a wonderful way to show a grandfather and grandaughter enjoying each other's company. The man is well-dressed, and the little girl appears so relaxed. They are sitting close together, enjoying an ice cream cone.
I love the gold and darker color combinations that the artist used. The expression on the grandfather's face is very well done too, appearing content while watching the little girl next to him.
The sculpture is placed in the middle of a dedication garden.
