ABOUT
Edith Parsons (1878–1956) was an American sculptor renowned for her charming and expressive portrayals of children and animals. Born in Houston, Ohio, she studied at the Art Students League of New York under Daniel Chester French and other prominent artists. Parsons gained early recognition for her playful and tender works, often capturing joyful childhood moments in bronze. Her sculpture Duck Baby (1915) became especially popular, symbolizing innocence and delight. She exhibited widely, including at the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition. Parsons' work remains celebrated for its warmth, vitality, and sensitive observation of her youthful subjects.
