Title A name given to the resource The Rescue Description An account of the resource <p>A large sculpture depicting a frontier father defending his family from an attacking American Indian, "The Rescue" has been a source of controversy since its installation in 1850. Sculptor <a href="http://mallhistory.org/items/show/117">Horatio Greenough</a> stated that he was trying to show the dangers of "peopling our continent," but objections have ranged from the criticism of the attitude of the dog to various objections to its portrayal of American Indians. The US House of Representatives voted on, but did not pass, a provision to destroy the sculpture in 1939. After advocacy by American Indians and members of Congress, the statue was removed in 1958.</p> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Horatio Greenough Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1850 (Finished) 1958 (Removed) Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant 1830-1859 1950-1979 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Division. <a href="http://www.loc.gov/pictures/collection/npco/item/npc2007016058/">View original</a>. design & monuments ghost mall
