Abstract

The article discusses a traveling exhibition called "Monuments and Myths: The America of Sculptors Augustus Saint-Gaudens and Daniel Chester French," which explores America's identity during the Gilded Age through the sculpture of these two artists. The exhibition features approximately 80 sculptures, models, and maquettes, and examines the symbols and references in their famous public sculptures. It also addresses the societal complexities of the time, including social injustices and discrimination. The exhibition will be shown at various museums across the United States.
