Colorado Yule Marble – The Maiden Collection
Dimensions: 19 x 16 x 10 ”
Weight: 140 lbs
Sculpted from a substantial block of Colorado Yule Marble, Top O’ Th’ World is Martin Cooney’s homage to the grandeur of the Elk Mountain Range. This weighty and richly detailed work captures the soaring contours of alpine landscapes while integrating elements like ski runs and vestiges of abandoned mine shafts—subtle nods to the region’s adventurous spirit and rugged history.
Glinting with mineral traces that echo Colorado’s gold rush era, the sculpture combines natural elegance with historical narrative. Its presence is both grounding and expansive, inviting viewers to explore its slopes and shadows as they would a high-altitude vista.
Majestic and layered with meaning, Top O’ Th’ World stands as a stone-carved tribute to the peaks and past of the American West.
