This lovely bronze sculpture is located on the grounds of Walsh University in Canton, Ohio (Stark County). A four-foot-tall bronze by Jo Saylors of four children playing crack the whip, a children’s game dating to the late 1800s. The piece is meticulous in detail, right down to the wrinkles in the clothes and the off-balanced positions of the children.

Walsh University is a private Roman Catholic university in North Canton, Ohio.
