Bankers in Italy are sent an unambiguous message by this giant middle finger statue.
New York eulogizes Wall Street's power and optimism by erecting a statue of a bull in the Financial District of Manhattan. Conversely, Milan embodies a rather pessimistic attitude towards the world of finance. At Piazza Affari, the home to the Italian stock exchange, is situated an iconic marble statue modeled after an extended middle finger - its other digits appearing as though they were cut off. Thereby, it renders an unmistakable 'fuck you' to bankers and corporate chiefs alike.
