Under a blood orange sky

Posted by Ron (Saint Louis, United States) on 8 February 2008 in Art & Design and Portfolio.

The statue is of the Crusader King Louis IX of France, clad in 13th Century armor and depicted going into battle with an inverted sword. Inscribed on the north base, "Presented to the City of St. Louis by the Louisiana Purchase Exposition in commemoration of the Universal Exposition of 1904 held on this site."
