Plan for monument layout in a letter to
Stanford White,
collection of Darmouth College
|
The collaboration between
Saint-Gaudens and Stanford White on the Farragut Monument brought about a significant change from
earlier monumental sculpture produced in this country. The careful
attention given to siting, landscaping, and architectural features of
the monument, including the benches, pedestals, and inscriptions, formed
an organized and integrated whole.
