honor in Statuary hall and which, by
the way, was not Vfrginia's gift, al
though for many years thought to be.
The Lee statue was designed and
modelled by the Virginia sculptor Ed
ward V. Valentine Of Richmond, the
same artist who made the recumbent
statue of Lee which rests over his
tomb in Lexington. 1t was cast in
bronze at the foundry of the Gorham
Manufacturing company in Providence,
r. l., and is splendid life size like
ness of Lee as he was in life. having
been made by the sculptor TO conform
exactly to measurements and photo
graphs which were taken by him per-
sonally during and after the war.
The very uniform. sword and boots
worn by General Lee during the war
were copied in their minutest details.
and the statue is not only notable
work of art, but undoubtedly the very
best portrait of Lee as he was that
ever has been made.
