Overview
Carl Milles' The Little Triton is in an outdoor fountain at the Birger Sandzen Gallery in Lindsborg, Kansas.
Composition
Bronze
Scope of Project
The Little Triton had lost much of his original luster and color from years of outdoor display and lack of maintenance. For this sculpture, Jensen employed a technique of glass bead peening to completely remove mineral deposits and products of corrosion. After the peening process the sculpture was repatinated.
