I snapped this cell phone photo of the Shaw Memorial today while at the National Gallery of Art (West Building) in Washington, DC. I'm not sure how well-known it is that there are 2 versions of this sculpture. After the bronze sculpture in Boston was dedicated, Augustus Saint-Gaudens reworked parts of this plaster version, which has been in the museum since 1997.
