Christopher Columbus

I would like to start a conversation about this statue. I wonder why the arms are removed? Is the artist contemporary or shall I say subliminally? Is the artist trying to express a message for gun control? The right to bare arms is taken away now? What does this statue say to you? Or talk about anything you like. I’m trying to start a conversation.

Hello@Mike19020

Nice pic and the issue that you have raised may be pertinent. Not always the the statue’s size compels one to exclude the arms. May be technical persons apprpriately highlight on the issue. Thank you for raising it. Thanks for the post. Best wishes.
