We have recently been chosen as the
exclusive Fine Art sales representatives for THE AMERICAN - A MONUMENT OF
COURAGE, a tribute to the American People. THE AMERICAN will be built 200 feet
tall in America's Heartland and will be the largest free standing bronze
monument in the world that visitors can enter and ascend to a viewing area.
Description
Picture the following cities: New York, St. Louis, Paris, San Francisco,
and Washington, D.C. When one thinks of New York, the Statue of Liberty
comes to mind. The same can be said of the Eiffel Tower for Paris, the
Golden Gate Bridge for San Francisco, and the Arch for St. Louis. The
American will soon join these symbolic landmarks.
Towering more than 21-stories, The American will be the tallest,
freestanding bronze monument in the world that visitors can enter and ascend
to a viewing area near the top. The monumental sculpture depicts an Indian
brave standing with his right arm extended upward as a bald eagle lands on
his shroud-covered forearm. The left arm, relaxed at his side, catches a
blanket fallen from his shoulder.

The official emblem of Beijing 2008 entitled "Chinese Seal-Dancing Beijing"
cleverly combines the Chinese seal and the art of calligraphy with sporting
features, transforming the elements into a human figure running forward and
embracing triumph. The figure resembles the Chinese character "Jing", which
stands for the name of the host city and represents a particularly
significant Chinese style. The artwork embodies four messages:
- Chinese culture,
- the color of red China
- Beijing welcomes friends from all over the world
- to challenge the extreme and achieve the perfect and promote the Olympic
motto of "Citius, Altius, Fortius (Faster, Higher, Stronger).
