Welcome to random Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of a random Wikipedia page every day.

The random article for Monday, 27 September 2021 is George Berry Washington Memorial.

The George Berry Washington Memorial is a monumental funerary sculpture located on Arkansas Highway 149 north of Earle, Arkansas. It is the only major funerary sculpture in Crittenden County, and it commemorates the life and accomplishments of the Rev. George Berry Washington (1864-1928), an African American who was probably born into slavery, but ended his life as one of the county's largest landowners. Washington's grave site is on a low mound in an open field on the east side Highway 149. Two elaborately-carved stone piers, 3 feet (0.91 m) in height, flank wide steps leading up to the monument. The monument is a marble statue of an angel 5 feet (1.5 m) in height, mounted on a column of marble blocks 6 feet (1.8 m) high. The memorial was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.
