Contemporary artist Patricia Cronin has compiled a catalogue raisonné of the works of American sculptor Harriet Hosmer (1830–1908). This catalogue combines hand painted images with art historical research to create a document that reveals the complexities of Hosmer’s career, reputation, and legacy.
Hosmer moved to Rome in 1852 and lived among a community of British and American artists and writers and a circle of learned and well-to-do “independent women.” She had an important career, was praised by critics, won competitive commissions, and earned enormous sums for her sculptures.
In this unique volume, Patricia Cronin pieces together a conceptual framework to examine the histories of art and women at the intersection of the ivory tower and the marketplace in the form of a catalogue raisonné.
