It is part of the City of Portland and Multnomah County Public Art Collection courtesy of the Regional Arts & Culture Council. Description and historyThe copper and steel sculpture of a crown resting on it side was installed in 1995 at the intersection of Northeast Multnomah Street and North Interstate Avenue, south of the Moda Center in Portland's Rose Quarter.[2] Funded by the City of Portland's Percent for Art program, the crown measures {{Convert|15|ft|m}} x {{Convert|17|ft|m}} x {{Convert|12|ft|m}} and is partially buried.[3][3] According to the Regional Arts & Culture Council, the agency which administers the sculpture, "It is a piece about imagination, desires and aspirations, conquests and struggles. It is the job of the viewer to create the story that goes along with the crown. Is it a victory and position of honor waiting to be claimed, or is there another story? Only the viewer can say."[3] Save Outdoor Sculpture! suggested, "The crown is resting on its side perhaps waiting as a prize to be claimed or as a symbol of a triumph to come."[1] Averbuch was inspired by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's novella The Little Prince (1943), particularly its first chapter where the main character talks about his drawing of a boa constrictor swallowing an elephant being mistaken for a hat.[4] The sculpture is part of the City of Portland and Multnomah County Public Art Collection courtesy of the Regional Arts & Culture Council.[5] See also
