Presidential Statues – Washington through Grant

Here are some of my favorite statues that I have visited of Presidents Washington to Grant:

George Washington

Why does every statue of George Washington make you feel like you have to stand at attention?

Thomas Jefferson

Why does Thomas Jefferson always look like he is deep in thought?

James Madison

Perhaps the cutest Presidential couple statue ever.

Andrew Jackson

Do all his statues have him on a horse and on horses that apparently only use two legs?

Zachary Taylor

Perhaps the Presidential statue that is the tallest in the air.

Abraham Lincoln

Do all his statues bring a sense of sadness of a life cut way too short?

Andrew Johnson

Maybe the first take on the idea of Superman. All his statues seem to have that flowing cape thing going on.

Ulysses Grant

As General Grant looks toward the Lincoln Memorial you just sense the deep respect he had for President Lincoln.
