Dante Square : ウィキペディア英語版 | Dante Park
Dante Park or Dante Square is a park in front of Lincoln Center in New York City, New York. The park was established by Italian-Americans in honor of the Italian poet Dante Alighieri. Carlo Barsotti, editor of the paper Il Progresso Italo-Americano, originally wanted to gather funds for a much more substantial statue to be placed in Times Square around 1912. Because of fundraising difficulties, by 1921, the 600th anniversary of Dante's death, a smaller statue was completed by Ettore Ximenes and placed in the location at Broadway at West 64th Street. A statue of the same casting is featured at Meridian Hill Park in Washington, DC. ==References==
