BOSTON — It’s a matter of perspective.
“The Embrace” Martin Luther King Jr. monument downtown is taking flak both for the purportedly pornographic appearance some angles give it and some of the aesthetic choices that went into its creation.
The Embrace is, everyone at least agrees, a striking new statue unveiled this weekend in the Boston Common that depicts the giant bronze arms of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his wife Coretta Scott King locked in a hug.
