Statue of Lew Wallace


Lew Wallace is a statue of Lew Wallace by Andrew O'Connor that has been produced in both marble and bronze versions.
The marble version, a gift from the State of Indiana, was unveiled in the National [Statuary Hall Collection] in the United [States Capitol|Capitol] in Washington, D.C., on January 11, 1910, in a commission that O'Connor received through the intervention of architect Cass Gilbert, with whom O’Connor had previously worked. The same year a bronze version of the work was dedicated in Wallace's home town of Crawfordsville, Indiana, at what was to become the General [Lew Wallace Study and Museum].
