Gutzon Borglum: The Visionary Behind Mount Rushmore
– By #The National Presidential Wax Museum
Few figures in American history have left a mark as lasting (both literally and figuratively) as Gutzon Borglum, the mastermind behind Mount Rushmore. This colossal monument in the Black Hills of South Dakota stands as a tribute to the nation's ideals, carved into the granite cliffs for generations to admire. Borglum’s vision for Mount Rushmore, however, was much more than a collection of presidential faces – it was a statement about the growth, resilience, and progress of the United States.
