THE HUDSON MONUMENT.
Shaft in Place and Model for Statue
Completed.

Shaft in Place and Model for Statue
Completed.
Karl Bitter completed last week his
model of the figure of'Heury Hudson
which is TO surmount the Hudson
monument ON Spuyten Duyvi Hin
Since ground was broken for this mon
ument on July ., 1909, and the corner
stone was laid by Governor Hughes ON
September 20 of the same year. the
work of erection has proceeded quiet
ny. until now the handsome 1utcd coli
umn designed by Walter Cook is COM
plete and ready for the statue and tab
let's
The monument in its elevation Is
symbolical of the history of the Hud-
son river. The base and shaft are 100
feet high, commemorative the centen-
airy of steam navigation, and stand ON
a hill 200 feet high, making a total
elevation of 800 feet, symbolical of the
3OOth anniversary of Iludson's voyage.
The figure of Hudson. 10 feet high will
make the total elevation above sea
level 80 feet.
Mr.. Bitter has been two years i'm pre-
pairing for and executing his model
After carefully studying "Hakluyt's
Voyages" and examples of weapons
used by mariners of Hudson's time in
the Koeniglichos Zcughaus in Berlin

he concluded that mariners setting out
for voyages TO strange lands equipped
themselves with such armor ana woa-
pons as could easily be obtained. The
sculptor has therefore represented

From artistic considerations the
sculptor would have been glad TO in
vest the figure with a long cloak, but
on account of its altitude and tho qe-
ccssity for clearcut outlines, ne nas
used a short cloak of Spanish design,
because Spain dictated the fashions of
those days. as France dictated them
later. The bearded face, which is en-
tirely ideal as there is no contempor-
larry portrait of Hudson, gives him a
strong and somewhat carcworn cX-
Ipression.
