Harry Jackson was commissioned by the city of Valdivia in Chile to complete a monument of Admiral Lord Cochrane, a hero in Chile’s war of independence with Spain. Ten years later Jackson wrote that when he was doing the Sacagawea monument he drew on the experience of this bronze “for the spirit and courage that I feel in both of them.”
