Lincoln in New York

   Posted by: Jeffrey   in Art & Aesthetics

Union Square, New York - statue of Abraham LincolnWalking around New York City last week, I was surprised to find a statue of Abraham Lincoln in Union Square Park. After living here for 20 years, I am still surprised by what I notice when I really start looking.

That seemed to be Lincoln's way as well. I uploaded a few other pictures I took in Union Square, as well. See my other Union Square pictures on Flickr.

I think familiarity sometimes creates a wallpaper perspective over what we see day in and out. As a new Torontoan I find the city to be vibrant as everything is new and exciting. My neighbours don’t even notice the art pieces on parks anymore. This is one reason its great to play host with visiting friends as you can see a fresh perspective of what you’d normally may miss due to familiarity.
