The Goethe–Schiller Monument in Syracuse New York incorporates a copper double-statue of the German poets Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749–1832) and Friedrich Schiller (1759–1805). It was erected by the German-American organizations of Syracuse and Onondaga County and was unveiled on October 15 1911. Schiller who is on the reader’s right in the photograph was called the poet of freedom in the US and he had an enormous 19th Century following.
