Two bronze versions of American bisons occupy the entrace of the Formal Garden at Humboldt Park.
These are reproduced by models sculptor Edward Kemeys made for the grounds of World's Columbian Exposition, 1893.
Like the Art Institute's Lions, these two are also not identical. One has head down, as if gazing. Tyhe other stares forward.
