Item Details
Description
27 ½” x 20” (add’l 3 ½” for the brim of the hat) Cast in solid bronze and molded from clay, James Branscum’s original drawing of this iconic image of Waylon Jennings was initially known as “Image of the Man.” The bust was appropriately titled “Storms Never Last” after a song of the same name written by the love of Waylon’s life, country songstress Jessi Colter. First displayed on October 4, 1989 during a special unveiling at Jessi and Waylon’s Brentwood, TN home, ten days later the bust was revealed to the public in Phoenix, AZ as Waylon was honored at the Heard Museum for his contributions to mankind through music.


This first sculpture is still owned by Jessi Colter, but in memory of Waylon and for this Auction, a select few authorized castings have been made. This is specific bronze five of five.


James Branscum is an award-winning American artist and sculptor, often acknowledged as the first non-Native American artist to exhibit major Native American-inspired pieces in the marketplace.


**PLEASE NOTE: This bronze will be cast immediately proceeding the Auction and will take two months to complete
