Statue of Lafayette Plaque Marks American Gift to France
A Paris statue honoring General Lafayette, sculpted by Bartlett, commemorates Lafayette’s services to Washington in the Revolution. The project was funded by American schoolchildren who raised about 50,000 dollars plus a 50,000 dollar congressional grant, totaling 100,000 dollars for the bronze work. The final bronze statue shows Lafayette at nineteen, in uniform with sword aloft, replacing the earlier plaster version displayed at the Paris exposition.
