Why is Abraham Lincoln sitting at the Lincoln Memorial?
I don't know if this is the real reason or not, but Abraham Lincoln was very tall. Maybe they didn't want to make a statue that would be in the scale they chose, but would show how tall he was. ---- The main influence on the style of the Lincoln Memorial was the Temple of Zeus at Olympia, Greece. The focus of the memorial is Daniel Chester Frence's sculpture of Lincoln, seated on a throne. French studied many of Mathew Brady's photographs of Lincoln and depicted the President as worn and pensive, gazing eastwards down the Reflecting Pool toward the capital's starkest emblem of the Union, the Washington Monument. Beneath his hands, the Roman fasces, symbols of the authority of the Republic, are sculpted in relief on the seat. The statue stands 19 feet 9 inches (6 m) tall and 19 feet (6 m) wide, and was carved from 28 blocks of white Georgia marble. source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincoln_Memorial#Sculptural_features
