Looking at the front of the statue "Sacrifice", one of two statues that make up the work The Arts of War. The Arts of War are statues which adorn either side of the northeastern end of Arlington Memorial Bridge in Washington, D.C., in the United States. They were designed by sculptor Leo Friedlander, and erected in 1951. Each pedestal has 36 bronze stars spaced equidistantly at the top, which represent the number of states in the United States at the time of the American Civil War. This pedestal also shows spalling, the flaking off of thin layers of the outer granite due to weather damage.
