The installations of the statues are the project of the INDECLINE activist collective, and were created by an artist from Cleveland.
INDECLINE said in a statement: “It is through these sculptures that we leave behind the physical and metaphorical embodiment of the ghastly soul of one of America’s most infamous and reviled politicians.”
Many passers-by were clearly amused and delighted, with some daring to kiss the orange-tinted statues.
Overall, the project looked like a big hit with ordinary Americans.
However, employees of the New York City Parks removed the unauthorized installations.
Parks spokesman Sam Biederman said:“NYC Parks stands firmly against any unpermitted erection in city parks, no matter how small.”
