Eve, Bronze sculpture at Ball Nurses Garden, Indianapolis, United States
The bronze sculpture stands 5 feet tall in a fountain, depicting a female figure with arms crossed behind her head looking down to her left.
Robert William Davidson created the sculpture in 1931, and it was first exhibited at the 1933 Chicago World's Fair before its installation in Indianapolis.
Indiana University nursing students named the statue 'Flo' after Florence Nightingale and established graduation traditions involving decorating the sculpture with uniforms.
The sculpture underwent restoration at the Indianapolis Museum of Art and returned to its fountain location in Ball Nurses' Sunken Garden in June 2016.
Students from the Museum Studies course at IUPUI conducted research on this sculpture as part of a project examining 40 outdoor artworks on campus.
