Photograph by David Coleman. The Albert Einstein Memorial, located at 2101 Constitution Avenue NW in Washington DC, is a monumental bronze statue honoring one of history's most influential physicists. Created by sculptor Robert Berks, the statue was unveiled on April 22, 1979, at the National Academy of Sciences. The memorial features Einstein in a relaxed seated position, measuring 12 feet high and weighing approximately 4 tons. The bronze figure sits on a white granite bench made from pieces of granite quarried in Mount Airy, North Carolina. The base of the memorial contains three famous quotations from Einstein, and in his hands are papers featuring mathematical equations representing his major scientific contributions, including the theory of general relativity. The statue's surface displays Berks' characteristic rough, textured style, created through an intensive modeling process. At the statue's feet lies a circular sky map embedded in the plaza, showing the positions of the planets, sun, moon, and stars on the day of the memorial's dedication. The National Academy of Sciences maintains the memorial, which has become a significant landmark in Washington DC's landscape of scientific and educational monuments.
