Street Scene (Young)
Street Scene is a bas-relief sculpture by Marion L. Young installed outside the Chamber of Commerce in Ashland, Oregon, United States.[1] It depicts more than a dozen Shakespearean characters.[2] The artwork was funded by the city's 1988 Downtown Plan, which recommended the installation of fountains and public art in select Ashland locations.[3] Pat Corrigan of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch described the sculpture as "compelling".[1]
