No. 82. HENRY CLAY STATUE,
(CAPITOL SQUARE,) RICHMOND, VA.
This marble statue of the author of the "Missouri Com-
promise was executed by Joel T. Hart, a native of Ken-
tucky, and unveiled April 12, 1860. It is said to be an
excellent likeness of Clay, though the uncouth habiliments
which clothe the figure (perhaps a too faithful rendering of the
style of the period) rather detract from a proper appreciation
of the artistic value of the effigy.
