The commission for the Brigham Young statue was highly sought after, particularly by Young andAvard Fairbanks. The final choice of the sculptor was left to the three surviving daughters of Brigham Young. Young had sculpted Brigham Young before, including him in the central group of theThis is the Place Monument unveiled in Salt Lake City in 1947,^[3] which the family approved of. They did not likeCyrus Dallin's portrayal of Young. The statue was unveiled in Washington by Mable Young Sandborn, then Brigham Young's last surviving child.^[4]
