One of several unusual sculptures in the Amarillo area commissioned by Stanley Marsh 3 (1938-2014), a local visionary eccentric, businessman, and bon-vivant. The intended illusion of the top of the mesa "floating" in the air is occasionally achieved when the sky behind it is the right shade of white.
