Master Sculptor Sabin Howard shares: “A Soldier’s Journey,” has been years in the making and will serve as the centerpiece of the National World War I Memorial in Washington, D.C. When complete, Howard’s immense frieze will tell the story of an American reluctantly answering the call to war—a deeply personal and individual story and the grand symbolic story of the nation all at once. Across five scenes and 38 larger-than-life-size human figures, it is nearly 60 feet long and ten feet high. With Sabin known as the Greatest Living Sculptor and with the figurative mastery of this work, “A Soldier’s Journey” is poised to become the greatest memorial bronze of the modern age.
