Three Way Piece No. 2: The Archer, Bronze sculpture in Nathan Phillips Square, Toronto, Canada

The Archer stands as a large bronze sculpture with curved forms that creates multiple viewing angles within the public space of Nathan Phillips Square.

Henry Moore's sculpture was unveiled on October 27, 1966, following a successful public fundraising campaign led by Mayor Philip Givens to acquire the artwork.

The sculpture represents a shift in Toronto's approach to public art, marking the beginning of the city's commitment to displaying contemporary outdoor installations.

Visitors can view the sculpture any time of day at Nathan Phillips Square, located directly in front of Toronto City Hall at 100 Queen Street West.

The sculpture forms part of North America's most extensive public collection of Henry Moore works, with the Art Gallery of Ontario holding 131 bronze pieces.
