InscribedInscribed on the front of the bronze, approx mid-height on the left side of the center section, in inverted geometric letters that look like the ancient Greek alphabet, what appears to be the phrase "I love David". Dehner and Smith lived in Greece for six months in 1930 and their titles often use names or words that have ancient origins.
