Lew Wallace (O'Connor)


Lew Wallace is a statue by Andrew O'Connor that has been produced in both marble and bronze versions.
The marble version, a gift from the State of Indiana, was unveiled in the National Statuary Hall Collection in the Capitol in Washington D.C. on January 11, 1910, in a commission that O’Connor received through the intervention of architect Cass Gilbert, with whom O’Connor had previously worked, The same year a bronze version of the work was dedicated in Wallace's home town of Crawfordsville, Indiana at what was to become the General Lew Wallace Study and Museum.
