Riverbend Sculpture Gardens
Taos, New Mexico
Taos, New Mexico
On a three-and-a-half-acre property of riparian meadows, lawns, and woodlands in Taos, New Mexico, the artist, poet, and sculptor, Thomas Burnham French, has created more than fourteen environmental landscape sculptures. Working with his friend, Erilauro Alvarez, the sculptures are constructed of various, natural stone and micaceous quartz boulders from the local region. Contemplative and quiet, Riverbend Sculpture Gardens celebrates the beauty and serenity of nature. Created to evoke an impression of sacredness, it is an homage to the Earth and the intricately interwoven circle of life that sustains us.
