National Constitution Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. Alexander Hamilton in the Signers Hall, one of the life size bronze statues of all of the signers of the US Constitution. During the Revolutionary War, Hamilton was one of George Washington's most trusted aides. An ardent advocate for a strong Federal government, he was instrumental in the establishment of a national bank to stabilize the value of currency in the country. His strong personality was one that either attracted or repelled others. Currently, thanks to the award winning musical, Hamilton is enjoying a resurgence of attention. (The statues were created in EIS Studios in Brooklyn, NY. They researched historical documents in the designs. The background color is that of the wall behind the statue.)
