Colonel William Prescott Statue

The statue of Colonel William Prescott, a hero of the American Revolutionary War, stands in Monument Square Park in Charlestown, Boston. Sculptor William Wetmore Story's work was cast in Rome in 1880 and dedicated in 1881. The bronze figure rests on a pedestal of red and gray Quincy granite and stands right next to the Bunker Hill Monument. You can admire the sculpture on a stroll through the park, which commemorates the historic events of the Revolution.
