Black and white closeup of Fortitude the sculpted marble lion at the north corner of the New York Public Library at Fifth Avenue and 42nd Street. The photo is shot from the side and slightly behind, emphasizing the sweep of the lion’s mane and the texture of the marble. The sculpture occupies roughly the entire left half of the image, with Fortitude’s head turned away to gaze at the facades of high-rise buildings in the photo’s right half. Some dark, slender tree branches stretch overhead.
