Freedom, by Zenos Frudakis

One of the highlights of my recent trip to Philadelphia (aside from seeing Hamilton: An American Musical!) was finally seeing this sculpture in person. I love the concept of it. Frudakis talks about the concept in detail on his website, so rather than repeat him, I’m just giving you a series of photos from different angles. The sculpture is at the southwest corner of 16th Street and Vine.
