Reverend Jason Lee, Bronze sculpture at Oregon State Capitol in Salem, United States
The bronze figure stands 84 inches tall, depicting Reverend Lee holding a book in one hand and paper in the other.
The sculpture was completed in 1953 by Gifford MacGregor Proctor after his father Alexander Phimister Proctor passed away during its creation in 1950.
The monument represents Jason Lee's role as the first missionary in Oregon, commemorating his contributions to religious development in the region.
The statue requires periodic maintenance under the supervision of Oregon's Facility Services department to preserve its condition in the outdoor environment.
Oregon school children contributed funds alongside legislative appropriation to finance this bronze sculpture, creating a community connection to the monument.
