Sleeping Gryphon

Was in Lincoln Park today and appreciated this old gryphon sculpture.

A worn metallic gryphon, seemingly tired and resting its head to the right, sits amid green trees and bushes on dirt in a park. The upraised wings and much of the long tail are covered in blue red and yellow paint dots.

Sadly I can’t find any information about the artist online… so I submitted a question to the library.

A Washington State Ferry (Issaquah class) in the distance past a stony beach with afternoon sun shining in from the left. It is there power towards Vashon Island in the distance, where there is another ferry docked, and even further at the horizon of tree covered hills is a ferry leaving the Southworth terminal. There a few clouds in the distance for an otherwise bright blue sky.
