Originally created in 1893 by sculptor George Wade, Fountain Girl or The Little Cold Water Girl as it was sometimes called, was first seen at the World’s Fair in Jackson Park, Chicago. It was moved to several different locations after that, before being put in storage for some time. This beautiful piece of artwork was later installed in Lincoln Park but was stolen in 1958. Fountain Girl was never recovered but recently the bronze statue was recast and is now back home in Lincoln Park.
