 This bronze bas relief by Eugene Daub is 96" x 204" and is called "We Proceeded On". It was installed in the Montana senate chamber in 2006. It depicts the 1805 expedition at the High Cliffs area east of Great Falls of the Columbia River. At the panel's center is Sacagawea, the Shoshone woman who acted as interpreter for the expedition. The sculpture was co-sponsored by the Montana Historical Society and the Lewis and Clark Bicentennial Commission. Mr. Daub was commissioned for the work after a nation-wide competition. |
