The ''Washington Monument'' is a public artwork by American artist Richard Henry Park located on the Court of Honor, which is near Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The bronze sculpture is a full-length portrait of a 43-year-old George Washington. The sculpture stands on a granite pedestal, and a bronze woman points up at Washington while a child, also made out of bronze, gazes upward.〔 ==Description== The 10 foot and 6 inch high full-length sculpture depicts George Washington at the age of 43. "He wears a hat with flower, cape, boots, jacket, vest and pants. He holds a sword with both hands in front of him."〔(George Washington, (sculpture) ), SIRIS.〕 There are two bronze figures at the foot of the base that were added at the suggestion of Miss Elizabeth Plankinton. One, a woman, points up to the statue with her proper left arm, while the second figure, a child, gazes upward while holding an open book at his side. The inscription on the lower left side of the sculpture reads "RH PARK SC". The inscription on the proper right lower side of the sculpture reads "F. GALLI FUSERO". The front of the base reads "WASHINGTON". The back of the base reads "The Gift of/ Elizabeth A. Plankinton/ To the City of Milwaukee/ 1885".〔
