John Flanagan

John Flanagan served as the studio assistant to Augustus Saint-Gaudens for several years. A portrait bust of Saint-Gaudens by Flanagan, is owned by the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Flanagan is perhaps best known as the sculptor of the US Quarter, featuring George Washington and an eagle, and he also sculpted the great bronze clock in the reading room of the Library of Congress.  Flanagan was a prolific medallic artist. Among his more important works, he designed the official medal of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition of 1915.
