Colonel Thaddeus Kosciuszko and Agrippa Hull

Description

Sculptor Tracy H. Sugg created this bronze sculpture of General Thaddeus Kosciuszko working in his garden as he receives a dispatch from his orderly, Agrippa Hull. Sugg collaborated with the West Point Museum and Historian Colonel (Retired) James M. Johnson to ensure historical accuracy in the soldier’s uniforms. Sugg reversed-aged (to nineteen years) the bone structure of Hull from the one existing portrait of him to guide her when sculpting.
