Weather Vane (Indian)

Rollington Campbell

National Gallery of Art

The sculpture depicts a silhouette of a figure holding a bow, characterized by a distinct headdress with multiple pointed elements. The sculpture appears to be flat and cut from a single piece of metal. It has a rough, textured surface. The color of the sculpture is a uniform dark tone. In relation to us, the sculpture is shown in a profile view, capturing the figure in a dynamic, running pose with one leg raised and the body positioned in a forward-leaning stance.
