The LOVE sculpture by Robert Indiana is finally placed back on a pedestal at LOVE Park after many months of anticipation.
After much anticipation, the iconic LOVE sculpture by artist Robert Indiana finally returned to a pedestal in the park named for the artwork.
Hauled by a flatbed truck, the sculpture made several stops along the Benjamin Franklin Parkway in the city's second celebratory parade in less than a week, this one called, "LOVE on the Move." The sculpture made stop near major pieces of public art near the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Eakins Oval, Logan Square, Aviator Park and eventually to its final resting place, LOVE Park, which is undergoing a rehabilitation project expected to be complete in the spring.
Here's a series of photos showing the return of the iconic sculpture to its proper home.
