''Alexander Hamilton'' is an outdoor granite sculpture by Carl Conrads, located in Central Park, Manhattan.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://siris-artinventories.si.edu/ipac20/ipac.jsp?&menu=search&aspect=Keyword&term=76002763&index=.NW )〕 Hamilton's son, John C. Hamilton, commissioned Conrads to sculpt this statue, which was dedicated on November 22, 1880 and donated to the city.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nycgovparks.org/parks/centralpark/monuments/662 )〕 Conrads used the bust of Hamilton created by the sculptor Giuseppe Ceracchi as a model for Hamilton's head. American founding father Alexander Hamilton lived nearby in Manhattan, at Hamilton Grange, when he died in 1804.〔 ==Description== Hamilton is dressed in Colonial style with a wig, ruffled collar, knickers, and buckle shoes. His right hand is on his chest, while his left hand is holding a rolled document, resting on a stone column. Thirteen stars encircle the top of the pedestal. A sword, scabbard and military hat are near the base of the pedestal.〔〔 Conrads used a granite block from a quarry in Westerly, Rhode Island since it was both beautiful and durable, able to withstand the highest pressures.
