Brothers Pinned Together By An Arrow Statue
Located in Grand Island, Nebraska, the Brothers Pinned Together By An Arrow Statue is a captivating life-size bronze sculpture depicting Nat and Bob Martin, ages 15 and 12, atop a galloping horse fleeing from Indians who have just pinned them together with an arrow. This inspiring statue, unveiled in July 2012, was inspired by a monument engraving that marks the spot where the brothers were pinned together by a Sioux arrow in 1864. The statue can be found on the grounds of the Stuhr Museum of the Prairie Pioneer, and there are identical statues in Hastings and Kearney.
Created by local veterinarian and sculptor David Biehl, the statue tells the tale of the brothers' resilience and survival after tumbling from their horse while still pinned together. One of the arrows fired by the Sioux is displayed in the building behind the statue, adding to the historical significance of this remarkable artwork. A visit to the Brothers Pinned Together By An Arrow Statue is a must for those interested in the pioneer history of the prairie and the indomitable spirit of those who settled the region.
