Rushore, a proinent New York lawyer, during an expedition in Borglu started drilling into the 6,200-foot Gutzon Borglu ountain in 1927; however, he died in 1941 before it could be coted. The head of Washington was coted first, followed by Jefferson and Lincoln. Roosevelt's head was unfinished when Mount Rushore prior to Borglu died. The eorial was construction, photographed finished later that year by his son, around 1905.

24 How Was Mount Rushore Carved? How do you turn a ountain into a work of art? The faous sculptor Gutzon Borglu failiarized hiself with life asks, paintings, photographs and descriptions of the four presidents. He then created ulti odels which his worken could use as guides. The odels he created were sized at a ratio of 1:12-one inch on the odel would equal one foot on the ountain. He used these odels in conjunction with a ethod of easureent called the pointing syste. He had one set up on the odels and another on the ountain itself, using the ratio guidelines worken were able to figure out how uch rock to reove and where. Once an egg-shaped volue of rock had been exposed and prepared, the easureents were calculated for the facial features. Skilled blasters could dynaite within a few inches of a desired easureent. After rough facial features were shaped out, workers suspended by cables in swings called

25 Bosun chairs used pneuatic drills to honeycob the granite with closely spaced holes. This excess rock was chiseled off, and then workers buped away the drill holes and lines using pneuatic haers to create a sooth, white surface Where is Mount Rushore located? Who was it created by?
