Chicago sights
Magdalene by artist Dessa Kirk
Dessa Kirk’s Magdalene is located at the intersection of Congress Parkway and Michigan Avenue. In the springtime, there are tulips at her feet feet, and in the summertime vines and flowers fill up her skirt.
She is not far from this famous sign...

Wow what a fab piece and I bet it looks amazing with flowers and such.
My time on Route 66 was a great trip.
U+R
Thanks, luv! What section of Route 66 did you see?
Grabs your attention...
I read that the artist is from Alaska and she learned to weld in the remote Village that she and her grandfather lived in.
It is interesting to see her skirt green from flowers.
And this is not a penitent Magdalene :)))
She is so tall and is quite wonderful!
Yes, it has lightness and flight :)
I love that statue it is quite unique
I thought she was lovely, too!
Wow! She is gorgeous 💖
She is so lovely and so tall!
What a beauty, I hope one day to see this up close
I hope so, too. You would love Chicago.
If for all the photos you've uploaded, Chicago is beautiful
Magdalene is beautifully feminine and graceful.
We really enjoyed seeing her.
that statue is huge, by the way is there some meaning why this magdalene built there?

Chicago has many wonderful public art works... Maybe she is meant to welcome people into Grant Park, as she is at one of the entrances.
What a brilliant idea with a skirt! Amazing art!
She comes to life with all the the vines!
Do you mean Mary Magdalene?

I saw no references to Mary, only that the statues name is Magdalene.
