‘The Astronomer’, a statue by #CarlMilles. The projected ‘Hello Folks’ is a motto of the 1940 season, which sought to give the Fair more folksy, less sophisticated and ‘educational’, tone in hopes of boosting the already impressive attendance.

Here is a short video I created of "Fountain of Faith". Have a moment and turn on the sound and enjoy a soothing song by Wilhelm Stenhammar, a Swedish contemporary of Milles.

Fountain of Faith by Swedish sculptor Carl Milles. National Memorial Park, Falls Church, VA - 4/1982. This powerful ensemble is even more meaningful after learning the artist based his models on actual people that he knew before their death. It depicts the afterlife.
