    'The Embrace' is a memorial to Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King and was unveiled in early 2023 at 'Freedom Plaza' in 'Boston Common'. The six-meter-high bronze sculpture shows an interlocking embrace. The pose is borrowed from a famous photo of the couple taken when Martin Luther King Jr. received the Nobel Prize in 1964.
