Editing Solon Borglum (section)

==Works==
Borglum created several animal groups while in Paris, including ''Lassoing Wild Horses'' and ''The Stampede of Wild Horses'', which were shown at the [[Salon (Paris)|Paris Salon]] in 1898 and 1899, respectively.

The year 1903 was a banner one for the artist. He had a one-man show of thirty-two small sculptures at the Keppel Gallery, New York. In his ground-breaking ''History of American Sculpture'' published that year, [[Lorado Taft]] devoted several pages to Borglum,<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=eSGhAAAAMAAJ ''History of American Sculpture''] (New York: Macmillan, 1903), pp. 478-83.</ref> and he was the subject of an entire chapter in [[Charles Henry Caffin|Charles Caffin]]’s 1903 book ''American Masters of Sculpture''.<ref>Caffin, chap. 10, pp. 147-62.</ref> In 1904 Borglum won the gold medal at the [[Louisiana Purchase Exposition]] held in [[St. Louis, Missouri|St. Louis]].

Borglum received several major public commissions, including an equestrian monument of General [[John Brown Gordon]] for the grounds of the [[Georgia State Capitol]] in [[Atlanta]] (1907), one of [[Rough Riders|Rough Rider]] [[Buckey O'Neill]] for the plaza in front of the courthouse in [[Prescott, Arizona]] (1907), and ''[[The Pioneer (Visalia, California)|The Pioneer]]'', which was erected in the Court of Honor at the [[Panama–Pacific International Exposition]] in [[San Francisco]] (1915).

Two of his works are located in [[Jersey City, New Jersey]].  His sculpture ''Buffalo and Bears'' is in Leonard Gordon Park in the city's Heights section<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.njcu.edu/programs/jchistory/pages/L_Pages/Leonard_Gordon_Park.htm |title=Leonard Gordon Park |access-date=2011-11-27 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111110161947/http://www.njcu.edu/programs/jchistory/pages/L_Pages/Leonard_Gordon_Park.htm |archive-date=2011-11-10 }}</ref>

In 1974 a group of the sculptor's descendants gave twenty bronzes, marbles, original plasters, portfolios of drawings and paintings to the [[New Britain Museum of American Art]]. Today the Museum houses the largest repository of Borglum's works.

Borglum sculpted a larger than life bronze [[equestrian statue]] for the ''[[Bucky O'Neill Monument]], Rough Rider'' at the [[Yavapai County, Arizona|Yavapai County Court House Plaza]] in [[Prescott, Arizona]].<ref>[http://siris-artinventories.si.edu/ipac20/ipac.jsp?session=W2610L0U80281.2019&profile=ariall&source=~!siartinventories&view=subscriptionsummary&uri=full=3100001~!16360~!111&ri=2&aspect=Browse&menu=search&ipp=20&spp=20&staffonly=&term=Borglum,+Solon+Hannibal,+1868-1922,+sculptor.&index=AUTHOR&uindex=&aspect=Browse&menu=search&ri=2 Art inventories catalog Smithsonian American art museum]</ref> [[Teddy Roosevelt]] had persuaded [[Buckey O'Neill]] to join the [[Rough Riders]] and he was killed at the [[Battle of San Juan Hill]]. Borglum's statue ''Cowboy at Rest'' is also located on the grounds of the Yavapai County Court House in  Prescott, Arizona.<ref>[http://sharlot.org/archives/history/dayspast/text/2007_12_09.shtml ''The remarkable story of Solon Borglum'' (Sharlot Hall Museum)]</ref>

Borglum's pieces can be found at the [[Buffalo Bill Museum]] in [[Cody, Wyoming]], including ''Evening'', a depiction of a cowboy leaning against his unsaddled horse at the end of the day.

Two of Borglum's sculptures, ''Inspiration'' and ''Aspiration'', which depict Native American men, stand in the front courtyard of [[St. Mark's Church in-the-Bowery]], in the [[East Village, Manhattan|East Village]] neighborhood of [[Manhattan]] in [[New York City]], flanking the front gate.

Black and white photos of ''Cowboy Mounting'', ''Lost in a Blizzard'' (in marble), and ''Tamed'' can be found in Caffin's book.<ref>Caffin, p. 152, 160</ref>
