Description
An opulent interior is highlighted by a striking stained glass ceiling featuring a spiral design and warm tones. Below the intricate ceiling, a dynamic bronze sculpture of a man and a horse is the centerpiece of the elegant and historically styled room.
The Widow Maker Statue in the Driskill Hotel in Austin, Texas. It was a commissioned piece done by Barvo Walker. The sculpture depicts a runaway horse that is dragging a cowboy. When a cowboy's boots or spurs got stuck in the stirrup, it would sometimes drag the cowboy to death, thus making their wives widows.

The combination of this statue and the stained glass seems very unusual but it makes a fantastic image.
