A sculptor in neo-classical* style and subject matter, Edward Bartholomew was a carver in marble of bas reliefs*, portrait busts and medallions*. One of his most famous as well as typical works is Eve Repentant, a monumental, seated woman overburdened by grief. It is a narrative piece intended to convey through allegory and anecdotal details such as a serpent head and bitten apple a sense of tragedy of her fall from grace.
Bartholomew was born in Colchester, Connecticut (showing 500 of 6352 characters). |
