The ten-foot bronze statue depicts President Abraham Lincoln standing upright, cast at Claude Valsuani foundry in France and installed in a prominent downtown location.
Created by sculptor George Fite Waters and dedicated on October 5, 1928, the statue remained at its location until protesters removed it during October 2020.
