Goethe Statue and Meis

[Click on the photograph to enlarge it and for additional commentary]

I am not a big fan of photographs that feature statues, particularly of historical figures in representational style.  Yet, I have always enjoyed the superhuman statue honoring the German philosopher and writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) that sits at the north end of Lincoln Park, with two Mies van der Rohe apartments serving as the backdrop.
