NY Adventure 34:
Charging Bull
So many folks kept charging towards the Charging Bull that it was impossible to snap a clear shot. And of course, many ladies cannot resist posing with the Fearless Girl. Check out the contention between these two sculptures at https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/12/nyregion/charging-bull-sculpture-wall-street-fearless-girl.html And there was ‘creative’ political vandalism very recently: http://www.ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/news/2017/09/14/vandals-target-charging-bull–fearless-girl-statues.html Though the bull is a symbol of financial optimism on Wall Street, well, every bull realistically meets his defiant bear (not girl) in time. Such is the impermanence of financial cycles. What goes up must come down, and it can be such that the higher it goes, the harder the fall, as history attests.
