          The head is made from many plates cut in profiles and laminated together you can not see the welds from the outside but could be welded internally and under the helmet. It works well and will probably get better with ages as it rusts and all the edges blend to th eye.

I've just found an excellent YouTube video where you can clearly see the way the head is done:

wow....

That's perfect. If I were a resident of the town i would feel privileged to have that poignant work of art local.

And my take on the artist is in fact he or she is a skillful fabricator in the metal trades. A bliss to the eyes to look at.
