We just learned about the statue of George Washington by Horatio Greenough.
Another neoclassical sculpture is Benjamin Franklin by Hiram Powers in 1862 in the US.
Hiram was born in the US, and after making some famous sculptures he moved to Florence Italy, so he could get marble for sculpting easier.
