Acqua Grylli, Bronze sculpture on Milwaukee Riverwalk, US
The Acqua Grylli bronze arch features a mythical female figure on the west side of the Milwaukee River between Wells Street and Kilbourn Avenue.
The Riverwalk business improvement district commissioned this public artwork, which was officially dedicated in August 2001 as part of Milwaukee's urban development.
Created by American artist Beth Sahagian, the sculpture represents a guardian figure connecting natural and urban environments along the Milwaukee waterfront.
The bronze structure requires annual cleaning and waxing maintenance by Vanguard Sculpture Services to protect against weathering, pollution, and natural elements.
Beth Sahagian, who created this public artwork, owns Vanguard Sculpture Services, the same company responsible for maintaining the installation.
