General Note
Note the bronze statue groups honoring Florida Native Americans at the lower right.
The group in the center is titled "Seminole Family" and is the second sculptural group depicting a Seminole family of the 1830s walking along a path. It was funded by the Seminole Tribe of Florida and dedicated on March 15, 2006.
The leftmost group is titled "Movin' On" and is the first sculptural group installed in the Indian Heritage Tableau that honors Florida Native Americans. It shows a Miccosukee family of the 1930s walking briskly along a path. The work was funded by the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians of Florida and dedicated on March 15, 2005.
These life-size figures of cast bronze were designed and created by the artist team of Bradley Cooley and Bradley Cooley Jr. from Lamont, Florida.
"American Royalty" is the third sculptural group installed in the Indian Heritage Tableau at the R.A. Gray Building that honors Florida Native Americans. It was taken from a drawing done by sixteenth century artist Jacques Le Moyne during his travels up through what is now Florida to the Carolinas. The group of indigenous peoples of the European Contact Era (mid-16th century) shows a King, Queen and servant. The work was funded by corporate sponsor Robert Floyd and artists Bradley Cooley and Bradley Cooley Jr. It was dedicated on March 15, 2007.
