This colossal structure, shown here only in a partial view, was erected to celebrate
JMC's theory of proper behavior for a public figure. In his own words: Modesty
is a virtue that can never thrive in public. A man must be his own trumpeter;
he must get his picture drawn, his statue made, and must hire all the artists
in his turn, to set about works to spread his name, make the mob stare and gape,
and perpetuate his fame.
