DescriptionPeg Campbell attempts to explain the reason behind the lack of American sculpture and sculptors in the nation's earliest days. The Centennial Exposition of 1876 brought about an artistic quickening in America: it is the year Saint-Gaudens begins his work. Details of some sculptors both before and after 1876 are provided.
