Comment on Dying Lion (The Lucerne Lion) - a national-political monument with built-in controversy

Felder, op. cit. p. 17, and Friis, op. cit., pp. 38-39, erroneously identified the student as “Giovanni” and not Luigi Bienaimé. Tesan, op. cit., p. 168, established that it was Luigi. No records of a Giovanni Bienaimé have been found.
