The monument was created at Ball's studio in Florence, Italy. His son-in-law, [[William Couper (sculptor)|William Couper]], assisted in modeling the figures. It was exhibited at the [[World's Columbian Exposition]] before being installed in Methuen, Massachusetts, and dedicated on February 22, 1900.
