Mount Rushmore includes the faces of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln. Lead sculptor Gutzon Borglum said he selected those four presidents because they represented the most important events in the history of the United States.
The carving of the national monument began in 1927 and ended in 1941. Nearly 400 participated in its creation, earning approximately $8 a day. Workers used dynamite to carve 90%, using very precise amounts to chip away at the rock.
