"Job, as much as any work of De Lue, shows the male torso in repose.

Roger Howlett "Donald De Lue: Gods, Prophets, and Heroes," 1990, pg. XXI.

Donald De Lue
Donald De Lue was born in Boston, Massachusetts in 1897. He was an American sculptor, best known for his public monuments. De Lue studied at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts and later served as an assistant to sculptors Richard Henry Recchia and Robert P. Baker. This was followed by five years in Paris where he continued his study, while working as an assistant to various French artists. He returned to the United States where he was engaged by Bryant Baker. In 1940, he was elected into the National Academy of Design as an Associate member and became a full Academician in 1943.
