Robbins Memorial Flagstaff

The Robbins Memorial Flagstaff (1913) is a structure supporting and topping a flagpole in Arlington, Massachusetts created by Cyrus Dallin.

The supporting sculpture includes a variety of sculptural elements including bronze figures, stone eagles, and snapping turtles with a finial representing American Agriculture.

The eagles on the base were executed by the prominent stone carver, John Evans of Boston.

[2] On June 25, 1913, this sculpture and the nearby Menotomy Hunter were dedicated and Dallin's speech included a passionate plea for renaming the town of Arlington as Menotomy after the historic significance of its largely vanished inhabitants.

The sculpture can be found about 300 yards west of the Cyrus Dallin Art Museum.
