  • Lambert Article
    The Lambert House and Fountain West Newton Hill, Massachusetts This house at 128 Chestnut Street in West Newton was the home of the Lambert family from 1854 to 1900. The sculpture below by Anne Whitney was given to the City of Newton in 1903 in memory of Catherine Porter Lambert. It is part of a fountain located one block south from the Lambert House. The purpose of this article is to document the history of both the house and the fountain and share the stories of the people who were connected with these two historic resources. JUNE 2018 TABLE OF CONTENTS page The History of the House ……………………2 The Lambert family…………………………….4 Anne Whitney and the Fountain……….13 Acknowledgements……………………….…18 Bibliography……………………………………..19 Endnotes…………………………………………..21 West Newton in 1874.i The map is oriented with East at the top. The Lambert House is at the top right (SE) corner. The railway tracks run through the center of this map. Between the tracks and Washington Street are the Unitarian Church and the Allen School. The other shaded buildings north of Washington Street are City Hall, the Congregational Church and the Public School. 1 The History of the House When the Boston to Worcester railway line was opened in West Newton in 1834, the land uphill from the depot was largely undeveloped. Chestnut Street served travel between West Newton and Upper Falls. Highland (then called Orange and Linden) and Otis Streets were laid out but had minimal development. Bullough’s Farm encompassed much of the land between the railway and Fuller Street to the south.

  • Anne Whitney 1821-1915
    Anne Whitney 1821-1915 Born in Watertown on Galen St. (in the Hunt house of Revolutionary fame) in a family active in abolition, education and women’s rights (Lucy Stone was a cousin), Anne Whitney received an excellent education –especially for a woman of her time. Her poetry appeared in Harper’s and Atlantic Monthly and in a book Poems published in 1859 with no fanfare and only tepid reviews until noticed by the influential North American Review. That journal praised Whitney’s rapport with nature, compared her verse to England’s Pre-Raphaelites, and admired its “lyrical and dramatic power.” “Every word strikes home;” the reviewer wrote, “every line is clean, distinct as if cut in stone; the pen in her hands becomes so like the sculptor’s chisel that one questions if poetry be the fittest exponent of her genius.” The story is that when the family had moved to a part of Watertown now Belmont, the farmer next door observed her model a face in the wet sand he was using to root cuttings and encouraged her to study art. In fact she studied art in Philadelphia and New York, and anatomy in a Brooklyn hospital. She rented a Boston studio near her teacher William Rimmer and worked at home in a backyard studio called “the shanty” built by her brother. She also studied in Rome –the center of western sculpture at the time, and a place where a respectable woman artist could work from male models. She knew fellow sculptor and Watertownian the more boisterous Harriet Hosmer but avoided her due to incompatible personalities.

Jessie White Mario (1832-1906) Jessie White Mario (1832-1906) was a British writer, revolutionary and philanthropist who dedicated her life to Italian unification. She challenged the limits placed on women’s political participation and subverted 19th-century misogynistic stereotypes, provoking great admiration from both male and female contemporaries. The Italian press knew her as Hurricane Jessie, a 1 As cited E. Adams Daniels, Jessie White Mario: Risorgimento Revolutionary (Columbus, Ohio: The Ohio University Press, 1972), p. 116. testament to her unwavering commitment to the Risorgimento and her fierce passion for social and economic equality. Born in Gosport, Hampshire, Jessie was the daughter of a successful ship builder. From an early age she had a strong desire to help those less fortunate than her, secretly giving food from her family’s pantry to the hungry.2 Her middle-class upbringing was traditionally religious yet educationally non-conformist, allowing her an excellent education in schools in Reading, Birmingham and London. In 1854, Jessie’s thirst for knowledge took her to study philosophy at the Sorbonne, where she was particularly drawn to the work of thinkers such as J. S. Mill.3 During her time in Paris, she brushed shoulders with radical republicans and exiled Italian nationalists, prompting her life-long engagement with the Risorgimento.

  • 128 Leif Erikson Statue by Anne Whitney, C. 1910
    128 Historical Journal of Massachusetts • Summer 2021 Leif Erikson Statue by Anne Whitney, c. 1910 129 The Viking Saga Continued: Leif Erikson, Anne Whitney, Boston, and the Nation L. MARA DODGE Introduction: “Where on Boston’s Commonwealth Avenue can this be?!” you may very well wonder when first glancing at the image of the statue on the adjacent page and noticing what appears to be water (an ocean perhaps?) in the distance. The answer is: Nowhere at all. We have arrived at Juneau Park on the shores of Lake Michigan. “How,” you may wonder, “Did a replica of Anne Whitney’s 1887 statue of Leif Erikson, originally located on Boston’s Commonwealth Avenue, make it to Milwaukee?” What follows is part of the back story to Gloria Polizzotti Greis’s previous article in this issue, “Vikings on the Charles,” as well as a brief probe into Boston (and the nation’s) enduring fascination with the (mostly mythical but highly racially charged) Viking discovery saga.1 * * * * * In 1875 sculptor, poet, and social activist Anne Whitney (1821–1915) won a major competition to sculpt a statue of Senator Charles Sumner to be placed in the Boston Public Garden. The models had been submitted anonymously; however, when the Boston Art Committee’s jury discovered that the sculptor was female, Whitney was denied the commission. After much debate the judges had decided that it was unseemly and improper for a respectable, Victorian-era woman to sculpt the legs of a man. Instead, the commission was given to Thomas Ball; his statue of Sumner now stands in Boston Garden.
