I needed a picture for the Chester, New Hampshire Flickr group, and thought Soldier’s Monument would be a good one. There’s a fantastic write up of the monument’s history available at Archive.org; if you have any interest in this monument, I highly recommend it.

I was looking of the different meanings of statues and came across this one. I have so much respect for soldiers to decide to fight for our country..
My cousin just showed me a picture of this when she went to New Hampshire for some business meeting. The only difference is that there were leaves on the trees
Great statue.
I love looking at architecture and I love the detail on this statue. From his mustache to the wrinkles of his jacket. Thanks for the share.
As monuments go, it’s a nice design
