The Trenton Battle Monument by John H. Duncan (architect) and William R. Donovan (sculptor) was unveiled in Trenton, NJ in 1893.
This 150 foot tall granite Doric column commemorates the colonial victory at Battle of Trenton during the American Revolution. Atop the column stands a 13 foot tall statue of George Washington with his right arm extended. On the pedestal are several plaques depicting Washington crossing the Delaware, the beginning of the Battle of Trenton and the surrender of the Hessians.
