Dedicated
June 11, 1971
The
“Spirit of the Confederacy” hovers above a fallen member of the
Washington Artillery of New Orleans, who clutches the Confederate
flag to his chest. The angelic woman holds a flaming cannon ball
in her right hand while pressing a clarion to her lips with her
left hand. Some admirers of the statue say she represents St.
Barbara, the patron-saint of artillerymen. Hidden among the reeds
separating her from the soldier is the dove, a symbol of peace.
The
poignant bronze figures sit atop a base of polished green granite.
Sculptor Donald DeLue also created the Mississippi State Memorial
and the Soldiers and Sailors of the Confederacy Memorial at Gettysburg.
