Moroni has only become the norm in recent decades

Moroni’s appearance in temples around the world is relatively recent in these sacred structures and has only become the norm in recent decades. Emily Outer, the curator of historic sites in the church’s history department, said: “We think the angel Moroni statue is the standard for temples today, but that’s because most of the temples were built in the 1980s.” By the 1890s, architectural trends had changed, and the presence of statues in large public buildings became commonplace. “So the church wanted to keep the angel image,” Utt said, “but they decided to switch to a standing image because that was the architectural style of the time.” The California Temple in Los Angeles was dedicated in 1956 and features statues by local artist Millard F. Malin. Ute said it looked like an Arnold Friberg painting. This Moroni has Native American features, dressed in Mayan robes and sandals, muscular, with a trumpet in his upturned right hand and a gold disk in his left. You can take a look at our Mormon temple statue.

The religious sculpture is very representative

“Just as Los Angeles is a memorial building on the West Coast, the temple in Washington, D.C. is a memorial building on the East Coast,” Utt said. Together with the Salt Lake Temple, these buildings “represent that the church is here, that the church is eternal, that the church is here to stay. Therefore, it is unified to have morone statues on these three temples.” The Mormon temple statue is a very famous religious sculpture.
