The Minute Man
The Minute Man
In 1873 the town of Concord, Massachusetts commissioned the 23 year-old Daniel Chester French to create a statue commemorating the centennial of the Battle of Concord in the Revolutionary War. The statue was unveiled at the North Bridge where on April 19, 1775, colonial commanders ordered militia men to fire back at British troops for the first time. The statue depicts a singular minuteman at the Battle of Concord with one hand on the plow at his side and one holding a long gun.
