Tim Huhn’s tribute to the Golden Gate Bridge reflects the artist’s long held thematic interests in the American working class and how their inspiring work ethics partnered with industrious engineering helped take America to new heights during one of our Nation’s most trying of times. Upon the completion of the project it’s engineer Joseph Strauss composed a poem titled "A Mighty Task Is Done."

“At last the mighty task is done;
Resplendent in the western sun
The Bridge looms mountain high;
Its titan piers grip ocean floor,
Its great steel arms link shore with shore,
Its towers pierce the sky.”

Strauss’s words still ring true 82 years later.
