I think some modern sculptures might have similar ideas today! But on this day, all the characters' full nudity, their positions and overall scenes weren't welcomed by many. The bronze piece, called the Brabo Fountain, was named after a mythical Roman soldier, Sylvies Brabo, who apparently killed a giant named Drue Antigon, cut off his hand and threw it into the river; hence the description he did so at the top of the sculpture. Rambo's fame was for his ability to portray power and movement in his work, and this is no exception! He is clearly a talented artist. Unfortunately, decades later he did not see the broad embrace and appreciation of his sculptures, which are now much loved and imitable.
