The Oval – Philadelphia


#travelwithgdp
 Fact: The bronze and granite sculpture features a uniformed George Washington mounted on a horse. Washington and his horse are poised on top of the fountain, facing southeast down the Benjamin Franklin Parkway towards Philadelphia City Hall. The face of the sculpture was made from an impression of the former president made while he was still alive. The body was actually of a Prussian General. The lowest level of the monument features Native Americans and animals that are native to the United States.

Description: The plaza in front of the Philadelphia Museum of Art featuring the large Washington Monument fountain. This was the 2nd majestic George Washington statue that I was talking in my initial posts.
