American Sculpture in The Metropolitan Museum of Art : Volume II. A Catalogue of Works by Artists Born between 1865 and 1885. — New York, 2001

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

This publication, Volume 2 of American Sculpture in The Metropolitan Museum of Art, presents nearly 200 works by 70 sculptors, including Paul Wayland Bartlett, Frances Grimes, Adolph Alexander Weinman, Bessie Potter Vonnoh, James Earle Fraser, Max Weber, Elie Nadelman, Jo Davidson, Jose de Creeft, Malvina Hoffman, Hugo Robus, and John Henry Bradley Storrs. A biography of each of the sculptors represented summarizes the artist's life, and catalogue entries discuss each of the objects treated in this volume in terms of its subject and creation, its place in the artist's oeuvre, other extant versions of the work, and its complete exhibition history after it entered the Metropolitans collection. The biographies and catalogue entries incorporate the very latest scholarship as well as the wealth of archival material at the Museum to present a brief but thorough and up-to-date documentation of each artist and work. Jerry L. Thompson photographed all the sculpture for illustration in the catalogue.
