Playa Zephyr

$8,000.00

Inspired by the Nevada summer wind emanating from the western Sierra Range, this metal sculpture, designed by Michael J. Boyce, imbues the diurnal wind that blows easterly across the Nevada landscape in the hottest months. Its movement and unpredictability were first mentioned by Mark Twain in his 1872 book, Roughing it.

“…for it was two o'clock, now, and according to custom the daily "Washoe Zephyr" set in; a soaring dust-drift about the size of the United States set up edgewise came with it, and the capital of Nevada Territory disappeared from view.”

Thirteen feet long. Nine feet high at the highest point on the left. Five feet high at the lowest point, at the curl.
