Description

Black and white photograph of a stone roadside fountain in Seal Harbor, Maine, with water flowing from a metal spout in the shape of a seal's head. The stone fountain sits beside a road and consists of a metal spout shaped like a seal's head releasing a stream of water into a rectangular stone basin. There is a caged light fixture on top of the fountain. To the left, a white woman stands next to the fountain holding a notebook, and to the right, part of a vehicle is visible parked on the street. A bench and grassy park area are in the background. 1994. Jill Linzee, photograph. (See p16243-p16246.) (See NA4800.)

Established in 1990, SOS! helped educate local communities about America’s endangered sculptural heritage. The Maine Arts Commission was one of 106 organizations to participate in this survey.
