The Richmond Public Library's Brighouse branch has become home to a new terracotta warrior, Wu Chang, donated by sisters Julie Williams and Susan Lomness.
The sculpture was unveiled last Saturday (Nov. 2) with a reception for the Williams and Lomness families who donated the warrior, which was created and named by artist Tiana Kaczor.
"Sisters Julie Williams and Susan Lomness generously donated this beautiful terracotta warrior to the library in memory of their parents Yvette and Walter Beswick, who were longtime library users," said Shelley Civkin, library communications officer.
"It's particularly fitting that the sculpture be situated outside the library so that the whole community can enjoy this remarkable piece of art."
The warrior was part of the Easter Seals Terracotta
Warrior Public Art Project during 2012.
