    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Colonel Richard Owen Bust, or &ldquo;A bond between North and South&rdquo; (Indianapolis, Indiana)]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Located in the Indiana Statehouse, this bronze bust of Union Colonel Richard Owen was erected by Confederate veteran and former camp inmate, S. A. Cunningham in 1913. The statue, funded entirely by readers of the Confederate Veteran magazine, commemorates the humanity Colonel Owen showed to his Confederate inmates as commissioner of Camp Morton prison in Indiana. Southern “sculpturess” Belle Kinney was commissioned to complete the monument. Designed in the spirit of reconciliation, Kinney was “anxious that [the bust] be handsome and unusually attractive, as it will be placed in a Northern city and must speak for [the South].” In 1913, she informed the press that “it was my aim to portray such a man as he might look while pondering over the meaning of the great struggle … his sympathetic heart touched by the suffering it caused, yet realizing its necessity.” Owen is posed with his arms folded across his chest, gazing off to the right and his Union military uniform is draped across his shoulders like a cape. The bust sits on a three-part limestone base adorned with a series of carved leaves and inscribed with bronze letters commemorating Owen’s “Courtesy and Kindness.”  

In 1933, two bronze replicas of the bust were cast and given to Indiana University in Bloomington and Purdue University in West Lafayette where both busts still stand in the schools’ Memorial Union buildings. ]]></dcterms:description>

Unlike many northern monuments that depict a generic Union soldier, this one features a statue of a specific individual: General Griffin A. Stedman, whom the monument inscription calls a “typical volunteer soldier of the Civil War.” Born in Hartford and educated at Trinity College, less than a kilometer from the site, Stedman had been widely mourned in the city when he was killed in 1864 during the siege of Petersburg, Virginia, where a federal fortification was christened Fort Stedman the same year.]]></dcterms:description>
