Officially, ‘Civic Virtue’, but popularly called, ‘Fat Boy’, the monument depicts a muscle man towering majestically xxxxx movie overhead. Unfortunately, MacMonnies, the sculptor, carved it with the hero trampling a woman underfoot. A marble foot crushes her neck. Banished from City Hall Park, the city places it in front of Queens Borough Hall with official blessing but without general public approval. It is given with Manhattan’s complements. The statue is dedicated at the long-awaited(?) ceremony. Does anyone care? |

(Attilio and Furio also sculpted Daniel Chester French’s statute of Lincoln in the Lincoln Memorial and the Lions in front of the New York Public Library.) Civic Virtue stood in front of City Hall [see the 1923 picture] until Mayor La Guardia decided he was sick of being mooned by it everytime he left the office.
