The Coolie Statue, Auburn, California
View Original Description
"The Chinese Coolie" is a 22-foot-tall sculpture of a grizzled man in a conical hat pushing a wheelbarrow. Local dentist Kenneth H. Fox's colossal sculptures are located throughout the town. The statues chronicle Auburn's history, such as a middle-aged Claude Chana gold panning in the nearby American River, and a Chinese "coolie" worker building the Transcontinental Railroad.
