It is in the Jackson Park neighborhood near 63rd and Hayes.
Jackson Park is actually a sub section of the South Shore neighborhood.
This statue stands 24 feet tall and it looks like it is made of gold.
This statue was made back in 1918.

It is a replica of the original statue that was made for the World Exposition
way back in 1893. The original statue stood a whopping 65 feet tall!
If you are ever in the area, you should visit this statue. It really is impressive.
