To są (niestety) współczesne odlewy rzeźb Stanisława Szukalskiego. Na stronie internetowej https://www.szukalski.com/ czytamy: After Szukalski’s passing, Mr. Bray continued to cast the sculptures in bronze in accordance with the artist’s wishes, now under the name of Archives Szukalski. Rynek artystyczny prac Szukalskiego jest mały, właśnie ze względu na brak oryginalnych prac. Te późniejsze odlewy wypełniają niejako tę próżnię.
