Several people have inquired about the sculpture in this collage. It's "Time and the Fates of Man" by American Art Deco sculptor Paul Manship (1885-1966)

After making a sensation with the Prometheus Fountain (1934) for the newly-built Rockefeller Center, Paul Manship was commissioned to make a giant sundial for the 1939 World's Fair. His sculpture, "Time and the Fates of Man," depicts Clothos spinning the thread of existence, Lachesis measuring it and determining the person's fate, and Atropos cutting the thread to mark the end of life. The tree that holds up the gnomos (pointer) is leafy and full on the side with Clothos and Lachesis, but withered and dead above Atropos. On the side with Atropos is also a raven, harbinger of death.

The plaster sundial at the World's Fair was the largest ever constructed, at 80 feet tall. Shadows from the gnomus hit bronze numbers in the flowerbeds along the walkway. Despite the popularity of the sculpture, it disappeared after the Fair and is presumed to have been destroyed. Several bronze reductions remain in various collections, notably at the Smithsonian.
