Art Deco Indian God of Peace Statue
Art Deco Indian God of Peace Statue ,
In the lobby of St.Paul's City Hall .

Minnesota.
The largest carved onyx figure in the world, the Vision of Peace statue ,stands 38 feet high and rotates slowly throughout the day .
The monument consists of a statue of an Indian God carved out of Mexican onyx ,with one hand extended out as a sign of friendship ,with the other holding a smoking pipe blowing the “vision of peace” into the air for all to experience with the senses.
The base of the statue has five Native Americans sitting around a fire smoking their pipes of peace.
(The building was built in 1923 . Architect Thomas Ellebre.)
