Instantly recognizable as a Douglas Tilden sculpture by the movement of its figures and fabrics…read moreforged in granite and bronze, it's one of three San Francisco sculptures commissioned by this turn-of-the-century artist known as the "Michelangelo of the West". All three of Tilden's sculptures were placed on Market Street where two remain ("Admission" and the "Mechanics' Monument") however this piece, also known as the Spanish-American War Memorial, was moved to the foot of Dolores Street at Market in 1925 after it was unveiled in August 1906.
