Albert Gallatin, Bronze sculpture at United States Department of the Treasury, United States.
The standing portrait statue of Albert Gallatin, created by James Earle Fraser, stands at the north entrance of the Treasury Building in Washington DC.
Congress authorized the memorial in 1927, but World War II metal restrictions delayed its completion until 1941, with dedication occurring in October 1947.
The sculpture represents Gallatin's role as Secretary of the Treasury under Presidents Jefferson and Madison, during which he cleared fourteen million dollars of national debt.
The statue resides at 1500 Pennsylvania Avenue Northwest, near Lafayette Square Park and other historical monuments in Washington DC's government district.
The base inscription details Gallatin's achievements as finance secretary, senator, representative, treaty commissioner, and minister to France and Great Britain.
