The Doughboy, also known as the Ohio World War Memorial,[1] is a 1930 bronze sculpture by Arthur Ivone, installed outside the Ohio Statehouse in Columbus, Ohio, United States. The statue, approximately 10 feet (3.0 m) tall, depicts a male soldier. It is mounted on a stone base with bronze plaques on three sides. The artwork was installed on the building's grounds in 1930, and underwent a restoration by George Wright between 1989 and 1992. It was surveyed by the Smithsonian Institution's "Save Outdoor Sculpture!" program in 1994.[2]
