Crawford Long is a 1926 marble sculpture depicting the American surgeon and pharmacist of the same name by J. Massey Rhind, installed in the United States Capitol, in Washington, D.C., as part of the National Statuary Hall Collection. It is one of two statues donated by the U.S. state of Georgia.[1]

The work was unveiled on March 30, 1926.[2]

As befitted the subject, Rhind had the statue carved from Georgia marble[3] by Georgia sculptor James K. Watt.[4]
