Boat Fishing - a photo on Flickriver

Boat Fishing

            Boat fishing at Topiary Park in Columbus, Ohio.  The park, fully recreates the scene depicted in Georges Seurat’s famous painting "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte" by the sculptor James T. Mason and his wife Elaine to make a topiary sculpture for their backyard. 

Ultimately spiraling well beyond backyard-project scale, the couple pitched the idea to the city of Columbus, and work on the installation began in 1989 with the creation of artificial hills and the digging of a pond to stand in for the River Seine. James shaped the bronze frames and planted the associated greenery, and Elaine served as the original topiarist.
