Inset | Additional Description: Accompanying text: These close-up views of the Sherman monument, taken during the recent conservation project, show some of the sculpture’s extraordinary details. The depiction of Sherman was based on a portrait bust the Saint-Gaudens had modeled from life in 1888. Harriette Eugenia Anderson, an African-American woman who worked as an artist’s model, posed for the figure of Victory.
