Bessie Potter Vonnoh

1872 - 1955

Bessie Potter Vonnoh was an American sculptor best known for her small bronzes, mostly of domestic scenes, and for her garden fountains. Her stated artistic objective, as she told an interviewer in 1925, was to "look for beauty in the every-day world, to catch the joy and swing of modern American life."
