Description: This is a photograph of the statue often incorrectly believed to represent Captain John Parker sculpted by Henry Hudson Kitson and erected in 1900. This statue in Lexington, Massachusetts is commonly called "The Lexington Minuteman" because it was meant to represent the Minutemen generally rather than any individual. There are no known portraits of John Parker made while he was alive. It is often confused with the Daniel Chester French statue The Minute Man in nearby Concord (shown at right).
