Lightly textured 100% cotton paper. Gallery quality vibrant prints with white border for easy framing. Multiple standard sizes offered. Additional sizes are available. “IN HER DEFENSE” One of the vignettes on the memorial, close to Athena, portrays townsmen gathering whatever weapon was handy and marching off to war. With the backdrop of “Lady South” one cannot help but understand that the sculptor was saying, “these soldiers are defending all they hold dear, their mothers, their wives, their daughters, southern womanhood.” Ezekiel renders the men’s muscles, clothing, and armaments with accuracy giving the viewer a sense of being present with the army. ABOUT THE COLLECTION Dr. Ann McLean, artist, historian and educator, has generously created five watercolors of Moses Ezekiel’s masterpiece to help continue funding for the litigation to restore the Memorial. Her watercolor renderings are based on photographs she took of the memorial in situ, before the removal process began
