I took this picture just one month after this 10-foot-tall bronze statue was placed outside Boston's Faneuil Hall. Sculptor Pablo Eduardo made this statue to honor Kevin Hagan White, the longest-serving Mayor of Boston from1968 to 1984. One of his big successes of his career was to reopen theQuincy Market in 1976. Kevin White is still alive and is now 77 years old.
J'ai pris cette photo juste un mois après que cette statue de bronze de 3 mètres de haut a été érigée à l'extérieur du Boston Faneuil Hall. Le sculpteur Pablo Eduardo a réalisé cette statue pour honorer Kevin Hagan White, le maire de Boston le plus longtemps en service de 1968 à 1984. Un de ses plus grands succès fut de réouvrir le Quincy market en 1976. Kevin White toujours en vie est âgé de 77 ans.

I remember seing this sculpture downtown Boston and I really loved it.
Super effect.
Huh, interesting. Is this statue relatively new? I am wondering how come I haven't seen it when I was around the area. Must go check it out next time I go downtown!
Evidemment, au premier coup d'oeil, j'ai cru que c'était une petite fille! Effet garanti que celui de cette statue.
superbe cette statue et tres bonne idee du sculpteur d'avoir choisi de mettre du mouvement, cela donne vraiment l'impression d'un maire toujours en actvité pour sa ville. Bien vu ta photo avec la petite fille, il lui propose de visiter sa ville..
superb this statue and very good idea of the sculptor to have chosen to put movement, that always gives really the impression of a mayor in actvity for his city. Well considering your photograph with the small girl, it proposes to him to visit its city.
I haven't been bu your site for a while but it is good to be back. I always love the views you share of one of my favorite cities! -Ryan of OC Photos
Superb way to show us this sculpture Alex. I love the look on the lady's face!
FANTASTIC PHOTO, very clever!
Hi everyone,
Thanks for your nice comments.
Yes, this lady looks very small next to the 10 foot tall statue.
Fay, this statue of Mayor Kevin Hagan White was placed very recently, precisely on November 1st, 2006.
