Per the Rockefeller Center website, this one is merely called Sound & is to the left of Lee Lawrie’s better known ‘Wisdom’ outside the front entrance. Completed in #1934. #ArtDeco #LeeLawrie #rockefellercenter some folks say the character is talking onto a record. My theory is that they are telling the Hollywood Bowl a secret.

Wisdom is an art deco peice on the front entrance of 30 Rock, 30 Rockefeller Plaza. Rockefeller Center is full of art deco peices. This one is done by Lee Lawrie. Wisdom is flanked by sound and light. The work is based on Blake's Urizen, which is a mythology all its own. It took a bit of research to find this out. As on first thought this brings to mind Zeus or Odin. But I should have known. Urizen represented reason and law. And in Wisdom he hold architectural tools. Rockefeller Center represents everything man can make even in the hardest of times. It is a NYC landmark and has been a majors gathering place for industry, art, sports, news, and celebration over the years. This is definitely a high energy spot in the heart of midtown. 🏙 #scarletmooncreations #wisdom #artinthecity #citymagick #urbanwitch #leelawrie #americangods #rockefellercenter #urizen #witchywoman #priestess #artdeco #pagansofinstagram
