Charging Bull, Bronze sculpture in Bowling Green, United States
The bronze statue of a charging bull stands 3.4 meters high and 4.9 meters long, weighing 3.2 tons in Lower Manhattan.
After the 1987 stock market crash, sculptor Arturo Di Modica installed the bull without authorization on December 15, 1989 as a Christmas gift.
The bull represents the determination of the American people and financial strength, becoming the centerpiece of New York's Financial District.
Located at Bowling Green Park near Wall Street, the bronze bull receives visitors throughout the day, with morning hours offering fewer crowds.
The sculpture installation required an investment of 300,000 dollars from Di Modica, who spent all his savings on this project.
