I will begin reviewing the article. Give me a good 3-5 days. Card Carrying Parrot (talk) 02:27, 15 June 2021 (UTC)

Comments Lead
 * Add the materiel it is made of directly in the first sentence (eg. 'A bronze statue of William Francis Barnett...')
 * Replace 'who had served as a general in the Union Army' with 'a general in the Union Army'
 * That aside, lead is excellent

MOS compliance
 * Per MOS:OL, United States and Massachusetts should not be in the lead (keep Boston)

Brevity/Writing
 * WP:MOS/Accessibility, add an alternative caption to the image in the infobox
 * Replace 'decided that the' with 'decided the' (outside of this I can spot no errors, including weasel words, etc)

Sourcing
 * Excellent sourcing (both sources are WP:RS)
 * 'The State House: Boston Massachusetts' should have an ISBN (I found one online - it is unfortunately not on the Google Books page)
 * I would ideally also want more than two sources, although this is certainly enough
 * No original research is present

Broadness
 * The article goes into quite a bit of detail (eg. giving a nice background section which introduces Bartlett, how it bears a green patina, the celebration, and even the music played at the celebration - this seems almost WP:FA level comprehensiveness)
 * I quite like how the article is both comparatively comprehensive, yet also well written

Neutrality
 * No issues here

Stability
 * No issues here

Images
 * Illustrated with an image
 * If possible, find photos/paintings/images of the unveiling (probably don't exist unfortunately), or add a picture/photo/painting of Bartlett

Aside from extremely minor 'issues,' this article is certainly a good article. Great job working on it.
