the Flag Raising On Iwo Jima in
Arlington, Virginia, he is
renowned for his bronze
sculptures of statesman and
heroes, thirty-two of his works
grace parks and government
buildings in Washington DC.
Sadly, he passed away on June
3rd, 2003 at the age of 96 and
was laid to rest in Arlington
National Cemetery. |

The
Flag Raising On Iwo Jima - United We
Stand Edition 2001
Dedicated as the US
Marine Corps War Memorial in 1954
In response to the horrific events
of September, 11 2001, Felix de
Weldon authorized a special edition
of his sculpture The Flag Raising On
Iwo Jima, our nation's greatest
memorial to heroism and freedom. The
United We Stand edition commemorates
the deaths of all those who perished
in this unconscionable attack on the
United States and symbolizes the
unified response of the American
people to stand up to, and confront
terrorism. In Felix de Weldon's own
words, "this sculpture stands as the
American symbol of unity of action,
the will to sacrifice, and America's
relentless determination to defend
freedom."
