Sculpture of the Crucifixion in Amarillo

Station 11
The above is one of the work of art in a series of sculptures. You can check out the rest HERE
The monument is located on the south side of Interstate 40 near the community of Groom, Texas. In addition to what you see in these photos there are a gift shop, a display of a replica of the Shroud of Turin, an empty tomb with an angel, a devine mercy fountain, a memorial to the innocent victims of abortion, and a visitor center under construction. Future plans are to complete the visitor center and add a chapel and gardens with other Biblical scenes in life size bronze.
Thanks to June for sharing.

Someone actually emailed me large photos of these sculptures Cathy. I was in awe of the realism!
