The Patriot

The Patriot

Beth Robertson Wade

Morgan FountainLaurens Street at Park Avenue

This horse uses symbols from our heritage and shows our nation and its people as proud Americans whose freedom will always endure.
These are some major events which have pulled our nation together as people who have sacrificed, worked, died, and prayed for our country. I chose the United States flag as the background and superimposed the Twin Towers, the Tuskegee Airmen airplane and the Space Shuttle “Columbia,” over the flag. The eagle at the head of the horse and the collage leads the way with the cross and the Statue of Liberty standing tall and strong. The cross gives us hope for the future as we look to God who has brought us through these tragedies and difficulties.
