The Chalice

The Chalice is the sculpture in the foreground. I’m not sure what the sculpture n the background is called. I took this shot from the top of the Farmers parking building, and have never seen the two sculptures positioned like this.  The chalice now makes more sense.

    Wonderful sculptures – I wish we had more sculptures in my city!

    It had never occurred to me that they could be lined up like that, either. I think the Chalice was there first although I could be wrong on that.

    A whole new view of it Michele! It does make more sense and looks great from your position.

    Wow! I have walked past there many times never seen it from this angle, does anyone know if the other sculpture in the background has a name or symbolises anything?

    From the photo, it appears that the sculpture behind the chalice is a sheaf of wheat or other grain. In the U.S. that would make one think of the bread and wine in communion services of most Christian churches.
