The entry gate at Kubota Garden in Seattle, Washington. It is a beautiful, bronze sliding gate designed and installed in 2004 by Gerard Tsutakawa, the son of renowned Pacific Northwest sculptor George Tsutakawa. This photo was taken on July 7, 2007.

The gate was open, so this is only half. The other half is similar in design. See a photo and read the information about the gate that they have posted near the entrance: Kubota Garden entry gate
