Is this a real picture? It looks nasty but its on their official website.. is this really a bronze sculpture?

Yes, of course.
The artist Duane Hanson lived during the 15th century and oftened dined with Michelangelo and Renoir.
He eventually married Rubens's sister, Eileen.

Yes. I have seen several of Duane Hanson's sculptures in a museum and you would swear that they were real people if you saw them yourself. The man had a real artistic talent.

I second this feeling. I saw an exhibition at the Whitney in NYC and the figures are so lifelike it is almost scary. Beyond lifelife the artist really does an excellent job of showing emotion and a story in his sculptures. They are really excellent!

If I have a few moments I am going to look for the sculpture. Thanks for posting the link.

From boardingarea.com:

Taking the family to Disneyworld this summer? Be sure to spend some time exploring the art at Orlando International Airport (MCO)http://www.orlandoairports.net/main.htm.
The permanent art collection includes this oh-so-appropriate piece by Duane Hanson titled The Traveler. (It’s in the Main Terminal, Airside 2 security checkpoint).
