Eagle, Aluminum sculpture in Olympic Sculpture Park, Seattle, US.
The Eagle sculpture rises 43 feet tall, painted in bold red, featuring angular forms that create an abstract representation of its namesake bird.
Alexander Calder completed this monumental outdoor sculpture in 1971, incorporating his engineering background into the structural design of the piece.
The sculpture reflects the industrial and artistic development of post-war American art through its large-scale abstract form and metal construction.
Visitors can view the sculpture without admission fees throughout the year in the Olympic Sculpture Park near the Seattle waterfront.
The structure maintains perfect balance despite its massive weight, demonstrating Calder's mathematical precision in calculating load distributions.
