Muut tiedot
In the Falls Church cemetery outside Washington, Carl Milles was commissioned in 1940 to make a large fountain with several different sculptures in the form of human figures in different groupings. It was named The Fountain of Faith and became Carl Milles’ most extensive work of art and what he himself came to regard as his foremost. Each of the fountain's life-size figures evokes a specific individual whom Milles knew before their death.
The current catalogue number called "Brother and sister" is one of the sculpture groups originally made for this fountain but Milles later decided not to use. Instead, he made this slender group a stand-alone composition.
