專家說明

Inspired by the Renaissance works Janet Scudder encountered during her 1908 sojourn in Italy, 'Tortoise Fountain' is a dynamic example of the imaginative garden sculpture for which the artist is best known. While the present work is the full-size version, which the artist typically had cast in limited editions of 4, smaller casts of approximately 18 in. high are also known. Examples are in the collections of the Baltimore Museum of Art, Baltimore, Maryland; Richmond Art Museum, Richmond, Indiana; and Brookgreen Gardens, Murrells Inlet, South Carolina.
