Just recently discovered this artist via her "Attempted Evocation of the Civil War" bronzes and poem installed in the Union League of Philadelphia. The bronzes hauntingly beautiful, despite the ghastly subject matter...the poem, a bit maudlin by today's standards, but unfortunately still timely, as our children are still fighting and dying far from home. So glad to learn more about this lady. Thank you!
