\"MountIn this photo, the camera captured one of the last moments Gutzon Borglum working over the model of Mount Rushmore. It was taken in 1941, a few months before the death of the sculptor.<\/span><\/p>\n

The idea behind the Mount Rushmore<\/h3>\n

If you always thought that the faces of four US presidents appeared on Mount Rushmore because of some unexpected democratic natural disaster, we need to dissuade you. It is a carefully planned sculptural action that took a decade and a half to complete. The Mount Rushmore landmark started with a model.<\/span><\/p>\n

It all began in 1927 when South Dakota historian Doan Robinson partnered with sculptor Gutzon Borglum. They had an excellent idea to create a landmark that will immortalize American democracy and bring some tourist attention to South Dakota. The historian wanted to revive the monumental but dull countryside of South Dakota with something that would attract crowds of admiring tourists. For example, a monumental sculpture glorifying the democratic values \u200b\u200bof the United States and carved into local rocks!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Gotzum

Gutzon kept the Mount Rushmore model in his studio,\u00a0 right at the base of the mountain. Of course, it was a miniature, but the artist tried to make as close to the original as possible.<\/p><\/div>\n

From the model to the landmark<\/h3>\n

Doane’s project, in essence, and content, was utterly different from the final result. For example, Doane wanted Gutzon to carve democratic idols in the Black Hills. But the sculptor rejected the location, pointing out the poor quality of the stone. He offered the sunny side of Mount Rushmore instead. Also, Gutzon didn’t like the heroes that Doan proposed. The historian wanted to carve non-crowned Americans in stone. The sculptor insisted on the presidents, including Theodore Roosevelt<\/a>. Gutzon said that this project has to compete with the Statue of Liberty<\/a> and Hoover Dam, and thus it has to be magnificent.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Gutzon

Danish-born sculptor Gutzon Borglum wanted to curve Mount Rushmore figures in full length.<\/p><\/div>\n

The long road to glory<\/h3>\n

The work was in full swing. And it was in full swing for 14 years. In March 1941, six months before the completion of the work, the 60-year-old sculptor died. His son. Borglum Jr. completed the job following his father’s recorded instructions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Notice that the Mount Rushmore model has the presidents up to the waist. Alas, due to lack of funding in the final project, they had to be cut down to the chest.<\/span><\/p>\n
