The statue was commissioned to artist Clete Shields by the nonprofit organization Capital Area Statues. Following his move to Nashville in 1960, Nelson enjoyed success as a songwriter, but his career as a singer did not progress. After shortly retiring from the music business, Nelson moved to Austin in 1972, where his career found new success as a performer.
