Photograph by David Coleman. The Daniel Webster statue commemorates one of America's most influential early statesmen and legal minds. Located at a prominent intersection in Washington DC's embassy district, this memorial honors Webster's contributions as Secretary of State under three presidents and his extensive work before the Supreme Court. Daniel Webster (1782-1852) served as U.S. Secretary of State under Presidents William Henry Harrison, John Tyler, and Millard Fillmore. His legal career was particularly noteworthy, as he argued over 200 cases before the Supreme Court between 1814 and 1852, helping to shape American constitutional law during a formative period. Webster represented both New Hampshire and Massachusetts in Congress, serving in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. His oratorical skills and constitutional arguments earned him the nickname "Defender of the Constitution." The statue's location along Massachusetts Avenue places it within one of Washington's most historically significant corridors, known for its diplomatic buildings and memorial sculptures commemorating important American political figures.
