Statue of Daniel Webster, Bronze statue at Massachusetts State House in Boston, US.
The bronze statue shows Daniel Webster standing with a scroll in his right hand and his left hand resting upon bound fasces.
The Webster Memorial Committee funded this monument, which was completed in 1858 and installed at the Massachusetts State House in 1859.
The statue sparked debates among abolitionists who opposed its presence due to Webster's support for the Fugitive Slave Law of 1850.
Visitors can observe the statue from Beacon Street, as security measures restrict direct access to the State House lawn area.
This sculpture represents one of the earliest mass-produced bronze statues in America, manufactured at the J.T. Ames Foundry in Chicopee.
