About the Item

This bronze sculpture by Bessie Potter Vonnoh, from 1911, is a charming rendering of a young woman draped in an early 20th-century dress. Vonnoh became one of the so-called "White Rabbits", women artists who assisted Lorado Taft on the sculpture program for the Horticultural Building at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago. In 1895, she traveled to Europe and met Auguste Rodin and at the 1900 Exposition Universelle, she was awarded a Bronze Medal for Young Mother and for another statuette, Dancing Girl.
