- Description
- Harriet Hosmer (1830 1908) was one of the country's most respected artists, credited with opening the field of sculpture to women. In this biography, Culkin explores Hosmer's life and work and places her in the context of a notable group of expatriate writers and artists who gathered in Rome in the nineteenth century. In 1852 Hosmer moved from Boston to Rome, where she shared a house with actress Charlotte Cushman and soon formed close friendships with expatriates as Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning and fellow sculptors John Gibson,. References to Hosmer or characters inspired by her appear in the work of Nathaniel Hawthorne, Louisa May Alcott, and Kate Field among others. Culkin argues that Hosmer's success was made possible by her extensive network of supporters, including her famous friends, boosters of American gentility, and women's rights advocates. Culkin also addresses Hosmer's critique of women's position in nineteenth-century culture through her sculpture, the role Hosmer's relationships with women played in her life and success, and the complex position a female artist occupied within a country increasingly interested in proving its gentility.
