The bull on Wall Street. This Bronze Bull is put in this certain place for a particular reason. The Bull is strong and powerful and ready to charge. The bull represents how those in the financial district should behave, they should be aggressive and powerful in how they act to get ahead in their world.
The bull has a different meaning to those from outside the financial district in New York. I was first shown this image in church where my teacher told us that people still worship golden calves (like the one that Moses smashed when he came down from Mt Sinai with the ten commandments). The image of putting money, greed and ego above God and family is what this image signified to my Sunday school teacher.
