Description

Equestrian portrait of Revolutionary War hero Brigadier General Pulaski dressed in the uniform of a cavalry commander from his native Poland. His uniform consists of a military jacket with a long cape and a hat adorned with fur and feathers. His feet are in the stirrups and he holds the horse's reins with both hands. The horse trots with its head raised up and its proper right foot raised. The sculpture rests on an oval base decorated with a band of foliage and greek key design. Wreathes flank the inscriptions which appear on the long sides of the base. Three steps lead up to the base.
