    Life Begins After 30 the Range Rover Classic

    Life Begins After 30 The Range Rover Classic By Jeffrey B. Aronson Age slips up to most of us, and the next thing you know, you’re a “classic.” It may be hard to believe, but the Range Rover has now delighted automotive enthusiasts since its unveiling 31 years ago. When Land Rover afficionados discuss “old Land Rovers,” they must now include Range Rovers, too. The Range Rover has been with us in much the same manner for three decades; even the “new” model in 1994 retained many of the engineering cues of the original. The original Range Rover, dubbed the “Classic,” took the Land Rover concept of “crossover vehicle” and made it more sophisticated. Whereas the Land Rover made itself into a station wagon by adding more seats to a utility vehicle, it First didn’t fool passengers one bit. The Range Rover Impressions combined luxury, performance, station wagon utility, and of course, off road capability, in a car that asked little compromise from its owners.

    Margaret French Cresson: Talented Daughter of a Famous Father

    BY DANA PILSON HISTORIC MASTERS MARGARET FRENCH CRESSON: TALENTED DAUGHTER OF A FAMOUS FATHER he American sculptor Daniel Chester French (1850– 1931) is renowned for his monumental works, including the seated Abraham Lincoln for the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. His daughter, Margaret French Cres- son (1889–1973), was also a talented sculptor, as well as a writer and preservationist. She grew up in New York TCity and at Chesterwood, the country home, studio, and gardens her father had established in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, as a respite from urban life. Margaret French Cresson was deeply rooted in this property in the Berkshire Hills that was, and continues to be, a hotbed of creativity. In 1969 Chesterwood became a site of the National Trust for Historic Preservation thanks to her generous donation of the studio and a portion of its acreage. Her pivotal role is being celebrated this year with 50th- anniversary festivities and an exhibition this past spring that explored her life, art, and community involvement.1 This article outlines how Mar- garet French Cresson capitalized on her innate talent and wide-ranging contacts to forge a successful career in art. DAUGHTER Margaret was born in 1889 to Daniel Chester French and his new wife, Mary Adams French, in his hometown of Concord, Massachusetts. Seven years later Margaret’s parents were seeking a country home convenient to New York and happened upon the Warner Farm in Stockbridge. They purchased this property, which included a barn that French fashioned into a studio. Finding it insufficient, he enlisted the architect Henry Bacon to design a new one, complete with north-facing skylights and a 26-foot ceiling to accommodate larger works.

  • The Studio Homes of Daniel Chester French by Karen Zukowski

    The Studio Homes of Daniel Chester French by Karen Zukowski

    SPRING 2018 Volume 25, No. 1 NEWSLETTER City/Country: The Studio Homes of Daniel Chester French by karen zukowski hat can the studios of Daniel Chester French (1850–1931) tell us about the man who built them? He is often described as a Wsturdy American country boy, practically self-taught, who, due to his innate talent and sterling character, rose to create the most heroic of America’s heroic sculptures. French sculpted the seated figure in Washington, D.C.’s Lincoln Memorial, which is, according to a recent report, the most popular statue in the United States.1 Of course, the real story is more complex, and examination of French’s studios both compli- cates and expands our understanding of him. For most of his life, French kept a studio home in New York City and another in Massachusetts. This city/country dynamic was essential to his creative process. BECOMING AN ARTIST French came of age as America recovered from the trauma of the Civil War and slowly prepared to become a world power. He was born in 1850 to an established New England family of gentleman farmers who also worked as lawyers and judges and held other leadership positions in civic life. French’s father was a lawyer who eventually became assistant secretary of the U.S. Treasury under President Grant. Dan (as his family called him) came to his profession while they were living in Concord, Massachusetts. This was the town renowned for plain living and high thinking, the home of literary giants Amos Bronson Alcott, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Henry David Thoreau at Walden Pond nearby.
