Gertrude Stein, Bronze historic site and statue in Bryant Park, Manhattan, US.
The bronze sculpture depicts Gertrude Stein seated in a contemplative position near the New York Public Library Main Branch entrance.
Jo Davidson created the original model in Paris during 1923, and the bronze statue was installed in Bryant Park on November 5, 1992.
The monument celebrates Gertrude Stein's role as a writer, poet, and mentor who influenced numerous American and European artists in the early 1900s.
Visitors can find the statue in Bryant Park's literary corner, although the installation remains inaccessible to people using wheelchairs.
The sculpture represents Stein in a Buddha-like pose, reflecting her position as a central figure in the modernist literary movement.
