The statues depict men toiling in the field and foundry, heaving hammers or pinching molten metal with hot tongs. Each is about nine feet tall and weighs about 1,000 pounds. The sculptures, replicas of smaller bronzes in the collection, were fabricated in the Philippines, through a process called lost-foam casting.
