There have been a few people lately I’ve mentioned the “turtle statue” to recently. It’s a piece of *art* found in a very busy part of downtown worcester. Seems a lot of people, even locals, can’t recall it when I mention it. This is odd considering the subject matter of the art… it’s rather memorable. linked is a site with photos from a few different angles to show you what I’m talking about.

Linky

Perhaps this is from a more innocent time when the boy would be viewed as simply “holding” the turtle. yeah, that’s likely. Just like the fine folks at Time Magazie had no idea what famous picture this resembled (no, I will not link the other picture you sick fucks).

In any event, I can’t help but feel bad for the poor turtle
