Bronze Bison Sculptures Installed at Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History Entrance

Two large bronze bison sculptures, each weighing 2,500 pounds, have been permanently placed at the main entrance of the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C. This installation, which occurred recently, revives a historical connection, as live bison once roamed near the Smithsonian Castle over a century ago. The sculptures now flank the museum's doorway, serving as a tribute to the area's natural heritage and enhancing the institution's public art collection.
