sentences:  While Frederick Charles Herrick created a distinctly art deco lion for the exhibition's official symbol as did Percy Metcalfe for the exhibition medal, Clemens chose a more subdued approach for the six seated lions he sculpted in concrete for the Government Pavilion, taking a middle path between realism and art deco stylisation.New York's "Art News" described them as having been "treated with a formal restraint and severity that is wholly excellent".As Clemens's lions fronted the portico of the popular Government Building, they were a popular element in photographs and postcards from the exhibition.
