A fact from King Jagiello Monument appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 25 February 2007. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the King Jagiello Monument (pictured) in Central Park, New York, was forced to remain in the United States after the Nazi invasion of Poland made its return from the 1939 New York World's Fair impossible?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2007/February.

how big is it?

The article says it's the biggest statue in Central Park, but doesn't give any actual measurement. And there's nothing in the photo to give a reader any size comparison. An actual size should be listed. T-bonham (talk) 01:30, 12 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Equestrian bronzes of Bolivar and San Martin, also on huge pedestals, stand in the park at the head of Avenue of the Americas; they are so similar in scale that "biggest" is just a peacock term here. It now reads: "On its grand plinth it is one of the most prominently-sited and impressive of twenty-nine sculptures located in Central Park." How's that?-Wetman (talk) 02:00, 12 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
