Star Spangled Banner Centennial Monument 1914
Patterson Park, Fort Hill
J. Maxwell Miller-Artist

Built in 1914 and made of bronze and granite, this statue was designed by J. Maxwell Miller, a prominent sculptor from the Maryland Art Institute. Dedicated by the Star Spangled Banner Centennial Commission to honor the writing of the national anthem, two neighborhood children were used as models for this statue. It shows them holding a scroll telling how the Star Spangled Banner was written. It was paid for by the school children of Baltimore just as the school children of France paid for the Statue of Liberty.
