Cyrus Dallin's iconic bronze — The Scout — stands watch over the Kansas City skyline as golden hour light washes across downtown. This vertical composition frames the Sioux warrior on horseback beneath a canopy of summer leaves, with the full KC skyline stretching across the horizon behind him.
Installed in Penn Valley Park in 1922 after winning a gold medal at the 1915 World's Fair, The Scout has kept vigil over Kansas City for more than a century. It remains one of the most recognized and photographed landmarks in the city.
This is Kansas City, captured in a single frame: a frontier past meeting a modern skyline, bathed in the warm light that makes the Midwest glow.
