Pictures from the erection of Damien hirst’s 66 ft bronze sculpture ‘Verity’
‘Verity’ was made in over forty individual castings with sand moulds at Pangolin Editions foundry in Gloucestershire. The frame was made in a single piece of stainless steel. The sword and upper arm is a single piece of glass fibre reinforced polymer and the entire piece underwent significant windtunnel testing in order to ensure it was capable of withstanding the forces of high winds and sea spray.
