About Traveller

The artwork, titled “Traveller”, was created by Duane Hanson in the year 1988. Falling under the Hyper-Realism and Photorealism art movements, this sculpture exhibits a genre that intricately combines lifelike detail and precise representation.

The sculpture depicts a man who appears to be a tourist, seated on the ground against a plain, neutral background. He leans tiredly against a stack of luggage comprising of a large blue duffle bag and another bag behind him. Clad in casual vacation attire, he wears a brightly-colored, tropical-patterned shirt left unbuttoned, blue shorts, white socks, white sneakers, and a red cap. His face shows an expression of exhaustion, with his head resting on one hand as if he has dozed off momentarily. This sculpture captures the quintessential image of a weary traveler, characterized by meticulous attention to detail that is emblematic of Hanson’s mastery in creating hyper-realistic sculptures.
