DescriptionIn 1909, Edward Gardner Lewis hired George Julian Zolnay to design sculptures for the entry gates to University Heights. Zolnay created a lion and a tiger, though the tiger is always referred to as a female lion. In this photograph, which Zolnay autographed, he posed with the model for the male lion. Objects and people in the background have been blocked out.
