| MICHAEL BOYETT BRONZES |
| "The Gateway" "Nacogdoches ~ the Oldest Town in Texas" Where the Dream of Texas was Born The Charles and Lois Marie Bright Foundation recently commissioned Mr. Boyett to create this life-size historic bronze monument to be placed in the town square of Nacogdoches, TX , on Hwy 21, also known as El Camino Real. Nacogdoches is known historically, not only as the "Oldest Town in Texas," but also as "The Gateway." As the early pioneers forged westward, this city was their last contact with civilization - it was literally "the gateway" to Texas and to the vast unsettled Southwest beyond. This monument pays tribute, not only to the city of Nacogdoches, but to the courageous and adventurous spirits of the first families that helped to establish and settle the great state of Texas!

This sculpture portrays a frontiersman and his guide, a Sioux warrior, as they are breaking out of the wilderness onto the plains. They have come upon a buffalo skull with arrows protruding from the eye sockets (not yet in place) - signifying their approach to a "Forbidden Ground." |
