Video Presentation on Back Bay Campus
August 21, 2017
Trained in Paris and Rome, Augustus Saint-Gaudens is considered America’s premiere sculptor of the 19th and early 20th centuries. During a career that spanned three decades, Saint-Gaudens created nearly 150 works of art, including a number of major public monuments to heroes of the Civil War.
Come enjoy a video presentation of the story of his personal life, Thursday, Aug. 31 at 2 p.m. at Taylor Community’s Back Bay Campus, 66 Taylor Drive, Wolfeboro, NH. This free event is open to the public.
Find out how his personal life was woven around in-depth studies of six of his major works of art, from the contemplative Standing Lincoln in Lincoln Park, Chicago to the intensely moving Shaw Memorial on Boston Common.
