This statue of George Washington is quite a bit different that most statues of George Washington. Unlike the normal status of George, you will notice some rather unusual differences in this status.
  • The Romanesque image of this statue is the most striking differece of the statue. The near nakedness of the status shows a distict godliness to over clothed image. Quite a difference.
  • A second feature is the sword of the statue has a different orientation too. Rather that pointing towards the people, signifying that the once beaten large enemy and now we too are under its reigh, the sword actually point away fron the people. This signfiyes that the people hold the power and only give to it the government. When the foe is vanquised, we retain the power.
This statue of George Washingtion is quite unique as bears looking at.
