Columbus' Last Appeal to Queen Isabella is a statuary group which was previously installed in the California State Capitol in Sacramento in 1883. [1] It was the work of Larkin Goldsmith Mead (1835-1910). The statues were removed in 2020. [2]
[1] The first statue was installed in 1870, and, by 1971, the collection included at least one statue from every state. In 1933, Congress passed House Concurrent Resolution No. 47, which limited each state to only one statue in the Statuary Hall. Others would be distributed throughout the Capitol building. [1]
