I always thought this statue was pompous beyond belief, and patronizing to the subservient folks below and to either side of T.R. Which is why I photographed this trite and hackneyed representation of neo-colonialism from the back, or horse’s donkey, circa 1980.
In case you don’t know, it is beside the front entrance to the Natural History Museum in New York City, and will be taken down. About time, I say!
