I think it has been only a few times I've seen a statue of a person standing with their hands behind their back. I never noticed before and I can't explain why but I like it.

One reason might be so many public statues of people are awful.

That's Jimi Hendrix in Seattle. To me it looks like he's getting shot (or stabbed) in the back.
I think Tito's hands behind his back truly captures his legacy. It's not an inactive stance but one of concern and it looks like he's listening to his comrades. I also hate 99% of statues but this one is good.

I've hated them ever since I was a little kid. This conversation between me and my mom never happened but I'm pretending that it did...
"Why is that so dumb?"
"The statue?"
"Yeah. It's stupid."
"You shouldn't think that way." [My mom was always trying to get me to look at the bright side.]
"But it's stupid. Isn't it?"
"I don't like it but it's not stupid."
"So you think it's stupid too!"
"I didn't say that. But it doesn't look right. It doesn't look natural. He's not... in a natural pose."
"What's 'pose'?"
