I returned to Anthony de Francisci's Independence Flagstaff at Union Square Park this morning to pay my respects to the artist (he was born 125 years ago today) as well as get additional photos. Recently, I tried to take pictures of his sculpture for Independence Day, but the Parks Department were busy cleaning the monuments for the Fourth of July celebration. Now that the lawn is open to visitors again and his bronze reliefs are polished I wanted to get a closer look. Here are a few bonus pix to supplement my original post, On the Origin of Specie: 'Lady Liberty' and Anthony de Francisci.
