Each of the four doorways, as one enters the building in the center of the portico, has a different carved stone sculpture. From left to right, they are. a woman harvesting, a deerslayer (see previous photo), a woman weaving a basket - this photo and a man building a log cabin. They were meant to represent the toil of the pioneer settlers in Buffalo. The bronze transoms display a complex pattern of stylized flora within a large chevron (V-shaped elements) design, itself composed of multiple series of triangles.
