"American Patriot" is a brilliant portrayal of our national heritage, sculpted by one of the world's most gifted artists, Lorenzo Ghiglieri.
At 22 years old in 1953, while serving in the U.S. Navy, Lorenzo received his first commission from the United States Government to paint what became a gift to Great Britain as the coronation for Queen Elizabeth II.
At 63 years old in 1994, Lorenzo sculpted the “Official American Bald Eagle” which is now part of the permanent White House collection.
In his golden years at 75 years old, this master artist has now created perhaps his greatest work ever by molding his feelings toward patriotism into a sculpture called “American Patriot”.
