He created two scenes in which the angel of death stops a sculptor from completing a bas-relief in the Milmore Memorial. Many of his designs were carved by the Piccirilli Brothers, and he sculpted a deaf girl signing the letter "a" in his depiction of Alice Cogswell outside of Gallaudet University. He collaborated with Edward Clark Potter on a golden quadriga at the entrance of the Minnesota state capital called The Progress of the State. He included a hidden owl in the folds of the robe of his seated Minerva, which is outside of Low Library on the Columbia Campus and called Alma Mater. This man's golden "Statue of the Republic" overlooked the Chicago World's Fair and he designed the medals for the Pulitzer Prize. The rugged subject of another of his sculptures holds a plow in his left hand and a rifle in his right. For 10 points, name this American sculptor of The Minute Man who designed the massive seated statue that dominates the Lincoln Memorial.
