The Falconer is a bronze sculpture by James Lee Hansen. Dates for the abstract piece range from the 1960s to 1973. [1] [2]
The bronze sculpture, which depicts abstract tools of the falconry trade, measures approximately 3 feet (0.91 m) x 18 inches (0.46 m) x 14 inches (0.36 m) and weighs between 200 and 300 lbs. It rests on a concrete base that is 3 feet (0.91 m), 1 inch (2.5 cm) tall and has a diameter of 2 feet (0.61 m). [1] [2]
The Falconer was installed by Prince Lucien Campbell Hall on the University of Oregon campus in Eugene, Oregon, after being donated by Jordan Schnitzer in 1974. [3] The sculpture was surveyed and deemed "treatment needed" by the Smithsonian Institution's " Save Outdoor Sculpture!" program in 1994. [1] It was stolen in November 2008. The university offered a $2,000 reward for information leading to the work's return. [2] [4]
