The Thinker (考える人)
There are about 20 “original” Rodin (ロダン) “The Thinker” statues in the world (not counting those that are part of “The Gates of Hell”). I think I’ve seen five of them (Tokyo, Copenhagen, Paris, Palo Alto, San Francisco). This one was a couple weeks ago in Ueno Park outside the National Museum of Western Art. In fall, I think this one looks the best.

Thanks, I’m leaving for Tokyo in a few weeks and enjoyed your photos & commentary. It’s inspired me to write my own blog as well.
