To love a painting is to feel that this presence is… not an object but a voice.

~ Andre Malraux ~

Art can never exist without naked beauty displayed.

This is a twenty-five foot tall sculpture entitled Unconditional Surrender, created by Seward Johnson. It is based on the iconic photograph taken by Alfred Eisenstaedt, on August 14, 1945, on V-J Day, Victory in Japan, as the world heard the news that the World War II was finally over. Currently, the sculpture is in Sarasota Florida and San Diego, California.
