An Exhibition of American Sculpture THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART AN EXHIBITION OF AMERICAN SCULPTURE NEW YORK MCMXVIII AMERICAN SCULPTURE YOUNG SOPHOCLES BY JOHN DONOGHUE THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART AN EXHIBITION OF AMERICAN SCULPTURE NEW YORK MCMXVIII COPYRIGHT BY THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART MARCH, 1918 COMMITTEE ON SELECTION AND ARRANGEMENT DANIEL CHESTER FRENCH, Chairman EDWARD D. ADAMS GEORGE F. BAKER GEORGE BLUMENTHAL \VILLIAM CHURCH OSBORN HERBERT ADAMS EDWARD ROBINSON JAMES E. FRASER A. A. WEINMAN NOTE The exhibition of American sculpture here catalogued comprises the best works of the sculptors represented, so far as they could be procured. Some of these are the property of the Museum by gift or purchase; but a large number have been generously lent by the sculptors them- selves or by the institutions into whose possession they have passed. It is intended to make the exhibition a permanent exposition of American sculpture, but as the exhibiting sculptors cannot in all cases donate their work to the Museum, it will be necessary to retire some of the exhibits from time to time, with the expectation of replacing them with other examples by the same or other artists.

  • George Washington: a New Man for a New Century
    GEORGE WASHINGTON: A NEW MAN FOR A NEW CENTURY By Barry Schwartz George Washington never tolerated the notion, flaunted by some of his successors in the Presidential chair that the voice of the people, whatever its tone or its message, is the voice of God; nor was his political philosophy summed up in “keeping his ear to the ground, ” in order to catch from afar the ramblings of popular approval or dissent.... Will any one say that there is no need of such men now, or that the common people would not hear them gladly if once it were known that they dwelt among us? —The Nation, 18891 Every conception of the past is construed from the standpoint of the concerns and needs of the present.”2 Could the sociologist George Herbert Mead’s statement be applied to George Washington at the 1899 centennial of his death? Was Washington the same man at the turn of the twentieth century, when America was becoming an industrial democracy, as he was at the turn of the nineteenth, when the nation was still a rural republic? The title of the present essay suggests that the question has already been answered, but the matter is more complex than that. Because any historical object appears differently against a new background, Washington’s character and achievements necessarily assumed new meaning from the Jacksonian era and Civil War through the Industrial Revolution. Washington’s changing image, however, is only one part of this story.
