The bronze Pioneer statue stands on a stone pedestal among trees and flowering shrubs, with a brick campus building behind it. The figure wears a wide-brimmed hat and carries a rifle, attributes commonly used in pioneer memorials. The caption identifies the site as the Pioneer Monument at the University of Oregon in Eugene and places it on the Pacific Highway, the old north-south route through the Willamette Valley. The monument was an established campus landmark honoring Oregon's pioneers.
