The firm is best known for producing cemetery monuments and Civil War monuments, for both the Union and Confederate causes. “In the wake of the American Civil War, memorials to citizen soldiers who died during the conflict proliferated across the national landscape. Many of these monuments were replicated over and over using available mechanical processes to reproduce sculpture.” The American Bronze Company produced many of them. The company, by then known as the American Art Bronze Foundry closed up during World War II. (en)
