Steven Whyte's The Spirit of 49 commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Staffordshire brigade and serves as a memorial the fire men and women who gave their lives protecting the county. A celebration of heroism in daily life, the piece embodies the distinguished history of the fire fighter organization while honoring their continuing vigilance. Using a carved stone style, the artist captured a modern day fireman in the midst of a rescue.
Behind him the figure of a fire fighter from the original, fifty-year old brigade, stands in protection and inspiration. The dramatic sculpture resonates with the inherent bravery of the deed as well as the powerful bond and legacy of a profession whose members exist as symbols of civic protection and sacrifice.
