From the Dust Jacket: "This catalogue is the first to documents the collection of American figurative sculpture in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, from the early nineteenth century to post-World War II. Described here are 171 sculptures, including 70 in marble, 64 in bronze, 18 in plaster, and 19 in other materials. For each of the seventy known sculptors a biography gives a full account of the artist's origins, training, and career. Moreover, the professional lives of several sculptors -- such as Edward R. Thaxter, Philip Shelton Sears, Mary Orne Bowditch, and George Aarons -- are documented in detail for the first time. An appendix provides a ground-breaking technical analysis of the bronzes." Includes 11 works by Horatio Greenough, 15 by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, and 6 or more each by William Wetmore Story, Cyrus Edwin Dallin, Bela Lyon Pratt, Victor David Brenner, Richard H. Becchia, and Katharine Lane Weems.
