NEW YORK (7) - A September 11th memorial

Diese Skulptur stand seit 3 Jahrzehnten auf dem Platz zwischen den Twin Towers und World Trade Center. Am 11. September 2001 überlebte sie die Zerstörung der Türme. Es steht jetzt als Denkmal für diejenigen, die vor 6 Jahren gestorben.

This sculpture was intended by the artist Fritz Koenig to represent world peace. Koenig called it "Große Kugelkaryatide" -- or "Great Spherical Caryatid" -- but it's known as The Sphere. It stood for 3 decades in the plaza between the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, and on September 11, 2001, it survived the destruction of the towers. Showing its unrepaired damage, it now stands as a memorial to those who died 6 years ago.
