FDR and His Friend Fala

Sculptures inspired by photographs depict the 32nd president alongside his dog Fala. This statue depicts the president in a chair with a cloak obscuring the chair, showing him as he appeared to the public during his life. Roosevelt's reliance on a wheelchair was not publicized during his life, as there was a stigma of weakness and instability associated with any disability
