Equestrian Statue of Theodore Roosevelt (New York City)
Equestrian Statue of Theodore Roosevelt is a 1939 bronze sculpture by James Earle Fraser. It was located on public park land at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. The equestrian statue depicts Theodore Roosevelt on horseback. Walking on either side of him are two men, on one side a Native American and on the other, a sub-Saharan African. The statue has provoked increasing criticism for its hierarchical implications, and there were calls to remove it beginning in 2017.
