The monumental statue in Richmond, Virginia, honoring General Robert E. Lee, stands as a powerful symbol of defiance and celebration, reflecting the South's romanticized view of its past after the Civil War. Unveiled in 1890, two decades after Lee's death, it embodies the idealized achievements of the Confederacy, representing the "lost cause" narrative that emerged in the post-war era. Weighing twelve tons and towering at almost sixty-two feet, this marble statue encapsulates the enduring legacy and complex sentiments surrounding Lee's life and career.
