Summary
DescriptionEdmonia Lewis by Henry Rocher.jpg |
Albumen silver print of Edmonia Lewis. To quote the National Portrait Gallery: "Edmonia Lewis achieved international recognition as a sculptor during the second half of the nineteenth century. Educated at Oberlin College, she settled first in Boston, where she created portrait busts and medallions of prominent politicians, writers, and abolitionists. In 1865 she relocated to Rome and joined an active community of American and British artists living abroad. Adopting a neoclassical style then widely popular, she found inspiration in stories from the Bible and classical mythology, as well as from African American history. Her sculpture Forever Free (1867) depicts an African American couple as they first hear news of the Emancipation Proclamation. Although Lewis enjoyed unprecedented success for several decades, she died in obscurity." Dimensions:

First, because this is a FP, so no substantial changes are allowed after the FP promotion. Second, because Adam Cuerden is a very experienced restorator; if your changes would improve the image, Adam would have done that already; if he did not do that, these changes probably deteriorate the restoration. | |
