Augusta Stylianou Gallery 
Allen George Newman (August 28, 1875 - 1940) was an American sculptor. He was born in New York, where he studied with John Quincy Adams Ward and at the National Academy of Design [1]. His works are chiefly monumental and include The Triumph of Peace (Atlanta, Ga.); The Hiker, Spanish-American War soldier (Providence, R.I.); monuments to Henry Hudson, (New York), General Sheridan (Scranton, Pa.), Joel Chandler Harris (Atlanta, Ga.); Monument to the Women of the South (Jacksonville, Fla.); the figures Day and Night, Harriman National Bank (New York); the statues of General Oates (Montgomery, Ala.) and General Stirling Price (Keytesville, Mo.); and others. He is best known for his monuments, however, he was known to have done smaller pieces like, "Rough Rider", shown below, which bears much resemblance to the much larger work "The Hiker".
