At Ready, Confederate soldier statue in Charlottesville, United States.
A bronze sculpture of a Confederate soldier stands on a granite pedestal, measuring approximately 20 feet in total height in Charlottesville.
The statue was erected in 1909 outside the Albemarle County Courthouse, representing a Confederate artillery soldier with a raised hand.
The monument reflects the early 20th century Confederate memorialization movement in the American South, promoting specific narratives of the Civil War.
The statue generated substantial discussions regarding Confederate monuments in public spaces, leading to its removal in September 2020.
The figure earned its nickname 'At Ready' from the artillery soldier's stance with an upraised arm, signaling readiness to load a cannon.
