Clifford The Big Red Dog: Meet Rusty of Northport, Alabama
Every town has its landmarks. Northport, Alabama has Rusty.
Perched high atop one of the Kentuck Studio buildings near the heart of Northport's arts district, this larger-than-life metal dog sculpture has become one of the most beloved and recognizable fixtures in the Tuscaloosa-Northport community. Locals know him simply as Rusty. Visitors do a double take. Everyone eventually stops to look up.
Shot in selective color, "Clifford The Big Red Dog" gives Rusty the spotlight he deserves — his warm rust-red metal form glowing against a desaturated grey sky, trees framing him on either side as he leans forward from the rooftop with the confident posture of a dog who knows exactly where he belongs. The brick building beneath him grounds the scene in the character of Northport's historic arts community, home to the celebrated Kentuck Art Center and Festival.
It's part fine art, part love letter to one of Alabama's quirkiest and most charming local icons — the kind of image that makes people smile the moment they recognize it, and makes everyone else want to know the story.
Bring the charm and character of Northport's beloved Rusty home with this museum-quality fine art photography print by Bama Price — available as metal, canvas, or glossy paper.
