The Spirit of Detroit - Name

Name

The name emerged from an inscription from 2 Corinthians (3:17) on the wall behind it:

NOW THE LORD IS THAT SPIRIT

AND WHERE THE SPIRIT OF THE
LORD IS, THERE IS LIBERTY."

II CORINTHIANS 3:17

It includes the seals of the city and the county. A plaque in front of the sculpture bears the inscription, "The artist expresses the concept that God, through the spirit of man is manifested in the family, the noblest human relationship."
