Religion Sculpture in Parkman Plaza in Boston Common, June 2010

Parkman Plaza is a part of Boston Common not far from the Park Street T Station. The plaza is roughly the cement semi-circular area with three statues and a tourist hut. A red painted line, the Freedom Trail, starts at the door, then runs toward the center of the plaza, then angles sharply toward the Massachusetts State House.

The plaza is dedicated to George Parkman, Junior, who, when he died in 1908 gave $5 million to the city to maintain Boston Common and other city parks. The dedication was made in 1960 by Mayors John Collins and John B. Hynes.
