The Nakomis Sculpture is a reproduction of one of Frank Lloyd Wright's most celebrated designs, originally created as part of a pair of sculptures for the Nakoma and Nakomis figures, inspired by Native American themes. The Nakoma and Nakomis sculptures were designed for the Nakoma Country Club in Madison, Wisconsin, which Wright planned in the 1920s but was never fully realized. These sculptures reflect Wright's deep admiration for indigenous American cultures and his ongoing effort to incorporate cultural symbolism and organic forms into his work.
