Large Arch

''Large Arch'' is an outdoor sculpture by British sculptor Henry Moore. It was installed in 1971 and is located in the outdoor plaza of the Cleo Rogers Memorial Library in Columbus, Indiana. Xenia and J. Irwin Miller commissioned the sculpture and gave it to the library.〔〔 The sculpture is nearly 20 feet tall and is made of sandcast bronze that has been patinated.〔
==Description==
''Large Arch'' is an abstract bronze sculpture of an arch created by Henry Moore. The shape of the sculpture suggests human hip and leg bones, while the negative space on the interior of the arch suggests an abstracted human torso with head. It is 19 feet 6 inches tall. The width of the sculpture at its base is 12 feet 3 inches wide, but is 13 feet 9 inches at its widest at the top.〔 While the sculpture is hollow,〔〔 it weighs approximately . Despite the fact that it was sandcast in 50 sections and then assembled on site in 1971,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.artsincolumbus.org/large-arch/ )〕 the surface of the sculpture is smooth with little evidence of the joins. The surface of the sculpture was originally patinated green,〔 and was expected to change very little with age.〔 Moore described the original color as Paris green. As of 2014 the patina has progressed, with a light blue patina forming in areas that are most exposed to rain. The deep wrinkles and rough surface of the sculpture is part of the original design, which I.M. Pei has described as "elephant skin."〔
The sculpture is surrounded by a circular red-brick paved pedestrian plaza.〔
