The Sculptures of Daniel Chester French at Forest Hills Cemetery

Описание: A talk by Dana Pilson on the remarkable career of sculptor Daniel Chester French. While most well-known for his statue of the Minute Man for Concord and the colossal seated Abraham Lincoln for the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC, French sculpted almost one hundred other monuments and memorials throughout the country. The Boston area is especially rich with outdoor, public works by French, and three notable ones can be found in Forest Hills Cemetery. Recorded on 5/2/2023
