Grainger McKoy: Sanderlings

Basswood model

"Like those grand masters of the late fifteenth and early sixteenth century (Tilman Riemenschneider and Viet Stoss), McKoy enshrines a sense of the permanent with a fine, feathery touch."

— Thomas Hoving, Director Emeritus, Metropolitan Museum of Art

This sculpture of 15 Sanderlings on a wave of walnut is one of several major works of Grainger McKoy viewable by the public at The Sanderling Inn in Duck, North Carolina.
