This sculpture is from the museum collection of Chesterwood, the historic Stockbridge, Massachusetts summer home, studio and garden of American sculptor Daniel Chester French (1850-1931). He is best known for creating two of the nations most powerful symbols; the seated Abraham Lincoln for the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC and the Minute Man in Concord, Massachusetts. Today, Chesterwood houses nearly 500 pieces of sculpture -- one of the largest collections of fine art devoted to a single American sculptor and period.
