The coffee bean monument is near the main airport in Costa Rica. According to the guidebooks, the coffee bean is an essential part of Costa Rica’s agriculture, economy and history. Presumably, the vandals who left their calling cards on the monument feel differently.

Daniel Chester French was commissioned to sculpt two memorials to the noted Boston philanthropist George Robert White (1847-1922). One of these monuments (completed and dedicated in 1924) stands in Boston’s Public Garden, at the northwest corner near the intersection of Beacon and Arlington Streets.

The monument, titled "Casting Bread Upon the Waters," shows a smiling, moving angel holding a basket in her left hand and scattering seed with her right, as if to show how White gave his money to many causes which then took root and bore fruit. The base of the statue gives the verse from Ecclesiastes 11:1 from which the statue takes its name:

Cast your bread on the waters;
for you shall find it after many days.

The pedestal reads: "In recognition of the patriotism and public spirit shown by Baron Strathcona and Mount Royal in raising and equipping a regiment of horse for service in South Africa as an evidence of his sympathy with the cause of imperial unity"(during the Boer War of 1899-1902). The gull is suitably impressed.
