On July 9, 1776, patriots stole down under the cover of night to NYC’s oldest park, the Bowling Green in Lower Manhattan, where they pulled down a gilded statue of King George III. That evening, the patriots also tore ornamentation from the posts of a wrought-iron fence, photographed here by @george_etheredge, that still encircles the park today. Much of the statue was melted down and turned into ammunition, and no one has seen it in one piece since 1776. But now, inside the workshop of @studioeis on the Brooklyn waterfront, King George III has taken full form again, life size and in 3 dimensions. The recreated statue will serve as the centerpiece of a historical tableau at the Museum of the American Revolution, scheduled to open next April in Philadelphia. Philip C. Mead, the museum’s chief historian and curator, said the @amrevmuseum will try to shake visitors out of the idea that the Revolution was “controlled, tame, elegant, done by statesmen in drawing rooms that had green tablecloths.”
