On the lawn of the MacKenzie Art Gallery is a sculpture from Joe Fafard featuring a trio of cows. When I went to the Wascana Centre walking tour online, I found out that this cow is named "Potter". Here's a direct quote from the online tour:
Just over the rise is the half-life-sized sulptures of a bull, cow and calf that were
created by Joe Fafard and donated to the MacKenzie Art Gallery by Claire Kramer.
The bull is named "Potter" after the well-known 17th century dutch animal painter
Paulus Potter; the grazing cow is named Valadon after the French post-Impressionist
painter Suzanne Valadon. The calf was named Teevo after a contest was held to name
the smallest member of this trio.
