King Alfred Statue

USA / New York / Alfred /
The result of 10 years of work by William Underhill (former Alfred University School of Art & Design Associate Professor of Sculpture), the statue--dedicated in September 1990--is 5-feet-7 inches tall, weighs 900 pounds and is cast from a bronze-silicon alloy. It rests on a 9-foot base. It was cast in 18 separate pieces using the "lost wax" process and then welded together.
