The Art Life of William Rimmer
Author: Truman Howe Bartlett
Publisher: Forgotten Books

Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
Excerpt from The Art Life of William Rimmer: Sculptor, Painter, and Physician York as the director of the School of Design for Women at the Cooper Institute. Of his origin nothing whatever was learned, either by his friends or the public; and outside of his family - circle little was known of his life or his strug gles, even by his immediate friends. His plaster statue of the falling gladiator, ' when in 1861 it was first shown at his house in East Milton, and soon after in Boston, was pronounced a remarkable work, and its author a modern Michael Angelo. But neither this work, nor the st. Stephen, which was produced a year earlier, gained at that time the place in public esteem which they merited; and, after a temporary suc cess, both sank into undeserved obscurity.

Little Woman in Blue
Author: Jeannine Atkins
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1631529889
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 315
Book Description
May Alcott spends her days sewing blue shirts for Union soldiers, but she dreams of painting a masterpiece—which many say is impossible for a woman—and of finding love, too. When she reads her sister’s wildly popular novel, Little Women, she is stung by Louisa’s portrayal of her as “Amy,” the youngest of four sisters who trades her desire to succeed as an artist for the joys of hearth and home. Determined to prove her talent, May makes plans to move far from Massachusetts and make a life for herself with room for both watercolors and a wedding dress. Can she succeed? And if she does, what price will she have to pay? Based on May Alcott’s letters and diaries, as well as memoirs written by her neighbors, Little Woman in Blue puts May at the center of the story she might have told about sisterhood and rivalry in an extraordinary family.
