Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument photo by Michigan in Pictures

michpics writes: At the top of this 1871 monument to Civil War veterans is "a colossal personification of Michigan as a semi-civilized Indian queen menacingly brandishing a sword with her right hand and clutching a shield with the left." (From an 1870's Michigan History.)
