Franklin Delano and Eleanor Roosevelt statue
This statue in the Senator Robert S. Kerr Memorial Garden
outside the Henry A. Wallace Visitor and Education Center at
the Franklin D. Roosevelt National Historic Site is adapted
from a 1933 photograph of Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt on
the south lawn of their Hyde Park estate. The photograph can
be seen in the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library
and Museum. The sculpture was designed and cast by a team of
ten people from StudioEIS at the Tallix foundry for the
opening of the Wallace Center in 2003.
