- Cover photo description:
- Pictured is the front group of sculptures at the base of the Maine Monument which honors the 260 American sailors of the USS Maine, which sank in Havana, Cuba in 1898. A ship`s prow protrudes from the pylon. A young boy at the tip of the prow raises his arms aloft. In his hands he held wreaths symbolizing peace and victory, but those were stolen a long time ago. Behind him stands the figure of Peace with on her right a man and on her left a woman with a child, respectively representing Courage and Fortitude. It was dedicated May 30, 1913. The sculptor was Attilio Piccirilli and the architect was Van Buren Magonigle. It is located at the Merchant`s Gate entrance to Central Park at Columbus Circle.
