Minerva is waving at the Statue of Liberty in the first photograph.
The second is “The Greeter,” a piece by American sculptor John Coleman. “The Greeter” is a depiction of a painting by George Catlin In 1832 of the Chief of the Hidatsa Indians, Black Moccasin.
The last two are about Margaret Cochran Corbin (read her story). I portrayed her in costume when I was an Urban Park Ranger in Inwood Hill Park. This was for a reenactment we did during Halloween.
What are these? Hint: I photographed them at home. They’re both of the same thing.
Hudson River Park – LGBT memorial designed by artist Anthony Goicolea at 12th Street and Bethune Street is a monument to the LGBT community erected to recognize those lost in the Orlando Pulse nightclub shooting in June 2016, and all victims of hate, intolerance and violence. Constructed of nine modified “boulders” fabricated in bronze, some of which are bisected with a clear, laminated glass imbedded with prisms to refract rainbow patterns on the surrounding area.
I don’t usually post other people’s art work but these look so nice in the park I wanted to share them.
Some of the many sculputers in the streets of London photographed December 2015.
