Description
"Middlebury, Vermont, at Sunset" by Catherine Sherman.
"Middlebury to Her Soldiers" sculpture is a public artwork that is positioned in a prominent location on the triangle between Merchant's Row and South Pleasant Street in Middlebury, Vermont.
Carved from Vermont granite and 32 feet high, the sculpture has also been referred to as the Soldier's Monument, the Civil War Monument, the Ilsley Monument, and the Spanish American Monument.
Founded in 1761, Middlebury is located near the center of Addison County in western Vermont. The town is drained by Otter Creek, which flows from south to north along the western edge of the town, with the falls at the center of the village. The Middlebury River flows west to Otter Creek out of the mountains. Chipman Hill, a hill of glacial till, rises 450 feet (140 m) above the village just to the northeast. Foothills of the Green Mountains border the town to the east, with the Champlain Valley to the west.
