Charging Bull

New York

New York 7,100

快速参考概要

The Charging Bull statue, designed by Arturo Di Modica, is a 7,100-pound bronze sculpture that has become a symbol of Wall Street's power and resilience. The statue's bronze alloy is composed of 85% copper and 15% tin, which reacts with oxygen to form a layer of copper oxide, resulting in a greenish patina. However, the constant touch and friction from visitors have polished the bronze to a shiny appearance, forming a layer of copper carbonate. This phenomenon is a result of the transfer of oil and moisture from human skin, which reacts with the copper to form a more resistant and shiny layer.
