The Robert E. Lee Monument was the first and is the largest of Monument Avenue's monuments in Richmond. In 1876, the Lee Monument Association commissioned the adaption of a painting done by artist Adalbert Volck into a lithograph. The lithograph, depicting Lee on his horse, was the basis for the bronze statue created by French sculptor Antonin Mercié. -from Wikipedia
