Southeast entrance of Central Park at 5th Avenue & 59th Street highlighted by the sculpture of General William Tecumseh Sherman, one of the finest sculptures by the talented American sculptor and New York City resident Augustus In 1892 St. Gaudens modeled a bust of the general who lived in New York after the Civil War. He then created the equestrian sculpture in Paris, France, completing it in 1903. After much discussion, the sculpture was placed at the main entrance to the Park, befitting such an important historical figure and monumental work of art.
