Paul Manship Sculpture Hidden Away

Paul Manship, 1885-1966, was born and raised in St. Paul, Minnesota but spent much of his working life in the eastern US. Widely known as one of the founders of the Art Deco movement, Manship's work decorates such places as the Rockefeller Center in New York City and is found in museums all over the world. At one time, one of twelve castings of his 1926 "Indian Hunter and Dog" was found near the Como Park Conservatory in St. Paul. Then it was removed. It turns out that the statue was reinstalled in Cochran Park, a small green spot at 375 Summit Ave. Presently there is no indication at the site who might have created it.
