In this image, an elderly Filipino resident of Seattle's Chinatown - International District neighborhood walks down Maynard Avenue, passing George Tsutakawa's 1979 sculpture, "Heaven, Man and Earth," on South Jackson Street. Mr. Tsutakawa's work demonstrated a “style that blends modernism with philosophical and formal elements of traditional Asian art, a combination that became emblematic of the Northwest school.”
