Description
This one-of-a-kind bronze sculpture by J. Seward Johnson, Jr. is at the entrance to Steinman Park in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
The sculpture depicts a man reading a copy of the Lancaster Sunday News as copies of the New Era and Intelligencer Journal wait by his side. The headlines on the papers add to the unique character of the space as they memorialize events that truly shaped our time, Neil Armstrong�s walk on the moon, the disaster at Three Mile Island, and the first issue of the Lancaster Sunday News that reports registration figures as the highest ever.
My wife's idea of using her cell phone to light up the statue's face really finished the image.

A VERT interesting photo. Excellent lighting, excellent subject with lots to catch the eye--from the news paper on the bench, to the pattern in the brick, to the light on the man's face. I like. Thanks for sharing.
