UPDATED: March 1, 9 a.m. St. Mary’s College in Moraga has temporarily removed a statue by a Nazi-era artist after students created and promoted a petition calling for its removal. The German artist who made the statue, Fritz von Graevenitz, was celebrated among Nazi officials. Born in 1892, he created many pieces, including a 20-foot-wide bronze eagle and swastika statue and busts of Hitler. He died in 1959. The statue at St. Mary’s is titled “Falcon Boy” and does not have any Nazi symbols. It depicts an unclothed boy looking at a falcon he is holding in his left hand. The statue is located within the courtyard of the college’s Museum of Art.
