Description
"Downtown Kansas City, Missouri, View" by Catherine Sherman.
At the bottom of this photograph, The Scout, a famous statue by Cyrus E. Dallin, stands overlooking Downtown Kansas City, Missouri from its location in Penn Valley Park. The statue, more than 10 feet tall, depicts a Sioux Indian on horseback surveying the landscape.
The statue was exhibited at the 1915 Panama–Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco, where it won a gold medal. On its way back east, the statue was installed on a temporary basis in Penn Valley Park. The statue proved so popular that $15,000 in nickels and dimes was raised to purchase it through a campaign called "The Kids of Kansas City." The statue was dedicated in 1922 as a permanent memorial to local Indian tribes.
In the center is the iconic Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts in downtown. Behind the Kauffman Center are the pylons of Bartle Hall.
