Of all the ways to achieve immortality, becoming a statue is probably not the one you want.
If there exists a moment in time in which the powers that be go through the machinations to create and erect these figurative memorial statues, the powers that be may eventually fall from favor, the moment in time the statue represents may eventually be seen as a less than ideal moment of history, and these symbolic construction may be pulled from their pedestal, dragged through the streets, and thrown into the river. Or worse.
For the next two episodes, I’ll be taking you with me to the sites of two of the most interesting, controversial and hidden statues that I’ve had the luck to uncover. Each one represents the results of changing eras, the ways in which we deal with our problematic histories, or in these cases, how we hide them away or at least, attempt to.
How do we dispose of fallen idols?
