ABOUT
American bronzes stand as enduring artistic achievements, embodying the nation's cultural and historical narratives. The mid-19th to early 20th centuries witnessed a surge in bronze sculpture, with luminaries like Saint-Gaudens reshaping public spaces. These artworks, from Civil War memorials to allegorical figures, capture emotions and ideals. Melding craftsmanship and technology, artists pushed boundaries, contributing to the evolution of casting techniques. The form also adapted to modernism, showcasing abstraction and individualism. Today, American bronzes continue to inspire, reminding us of our past while inviting contemporary interpretations, thus remaining integral to the country's artistic identity and heritage.
