Pictorial portion — choose an image Select a well-known historic image or respectful artwork, such as: A period engraving or lithograph of the battle (use public-domain or properly licensed image). A portrait of Crazy Horse or Sitting Bull (respectful reproduction). A respectful panoramic painting that depicts Native resistance (avoid sensationalized or romanticized images). Place the image on the front face above or beside the inscription. Include a simple caption: “Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse: leaders of resistance.” MONUMENT DESIGN (visual plan — recreate in Google Draw / Canva) Form and materials Base: Low, circular stone platform (granite) about 2–3 feet high so visitors can approach and read. Plinth: Rectangular vertical stone slab (granite or sandstone look) ~6–7 feet tall and ~4 feet wide with the inscription carved into the front. Use deep, clear serif lettering for longevity. Relief or plaque: A bronze relief panel or framed bronze plaque mounted near the top showing the chosen image (portrait or respectful battle scene). Bronze patina gives dignified contrast against granite. Orientation: Face the plinth so visitors look east toward the Little Bighorn River area (if possible) to connect with the landscape. Layout on the front face Top: Bronze plaque/relief (36" x 24") with image and short caption beneath it. Below image: Title in large caps “LITTLE BIGHORN — HILL OF MEMORY.” Main inscription block centered below the title, carved into stone. Keep line lengths Mehr sehen
