I don't know about you, but I often find the story behind the story of some of my photos. In 2010, I posted this statue that I called The Dock Worker, since the plaque was missing.
On October 4th I posted that I'd been to the October Salon, a visual arts event that's been taking place since the Sixties. Inside as part of one exhibit was this photo that I rephotographed that shows the man who posed for this statue (he's on the left, but I think the fellow on the right may have had some influence, too).
His name, I believe, is Milorad, and he's still active in the art world.

The statue looks like a mix of the two models.

I'm thinking it's been a few years since the statue was made!!!
