This monument was done by Muldoon Monument Company of Louisville, Ky. Muldoon was recently a topic on "Kentucky Life", which is on KET our PBS station.

The Muldoon Monument Company was started in 1857 by Michael Muldoon who was born in Ireland. It is and was one of the most outstanding monument companies in the country. The firm built most of the Confederate Monuments in the South in the late 19th century, including one in Louisville, Ky.

Very nice photo. Thanks for posting.
 
It never occurred to me before this moment, but did Jefferson Davis and Abraham Lincoln ever actually meet? I don't recall ever hearing that they did.
