Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Barnard´s Lincoln: The Gift of Mr. And Mrs. Charles P. Taft to the City of Cincinnati This book is the result of a demand for a memorial of George Grey Barnard´s statue of Abraham Lincoln and of the ceremonies attending its unveiling. The facts attending Mr. Barnard´s distinctive interpretation of America´s Great Commoner will he briefly related. On December 10, 1910, Mr. Barnard received his commission to create the statue from a committee consisting of Harry R. Probasco, A. O. Elzner, the late W. W. Taylor, Louis Grossmann, and Charles P. Taft, as the result of the gift of $100,000 from Mr. and Mrs. Charles P. Taft for the purpose. Mr. Barnard completed his work in the early part of 1917 and the statue was placed on exhibition in the grounds of the Union Theological Seminary in New York City, where it aroused enthusiastic critical appreciation.
