Piazza in San Francisco will feature a 92-foot stainless steel statue

When it comes to physical size and aesthetics, the Statue of Liberty will soon have a West Coast counterpart.

Venus, a 92-foot stainless steel statue, will highlight a large public piazza in the middle of San Francisco’s Trinity Place.

Created by artist Lawrence Argent, Venus is a modern day interpretation of the Venus de Milo, the armless ancient Greek statue. Venus will be made of 2,500 stainless steel panels seamlessly welded together on site, and it will be unveiled this summer.
