Museum Display

For my museum project, I decided to visit a well known display at Cabela's. I've seen it many times before, but I've never examined in in such detail. For started, the display is huge. This make it quite irresistible and breath taking. The animals are displayed on ledges and on the ground around this giant mountain. The mountain is enclosed by a wooden fence that acts as the display case. And I guess you could say the mountain is the stand for the art, which is the animals.
Each animals is displayed in a natural stance surrounded by things that would be found in their natural habitat. For example, the deer were surrounded by grass and were near the bottom of the mountain, while many of the more goat-like climbing animals were toward the top of the mountain.
It is a very natural display in such an unnatural place. They took the time to add leaves, trees, grass, water, and many other details. It is an absolutely astounding display!
