That is great. I hadn't known that copies had been cast using Stanford White's version that was in his garden on Long Island. Thank goodness the Philadelphia Museum of Art acquired the original which was on top of Madison Square Garden II (and actually the 2nd version of Diana St. Gaudens had created for MSG, the first being a bit larger, heavier and less graceful and which was too heavy and did not turn with the wind. ) Just an interesting fact that I read from Evelyn Nesbitt's account of her time with Stanford White - he had a studio apartment in the tower and she said they used to take the stairs, then a ladder and climb all the way to the top where they would be just at Diana's feet with all the world (or it must have seemed like it) stretched out below them. Of course, later Evelyn's crazy husband, Harry Thaw, murdered Stanford White while all of them happened to be attending the same performance of the revue "Mam'zelle Champagne," shooting White twice in the face. Long before OJ Thaw's trial was known as the "Trial of the Century." Stannie was murdered on the roof of the magnificent building which he had designed, as St. Gaudens' wonderful Diana, towering above everyone's head, silently looked on. This was on a Monday, June 25, 1906.
his responses are talking about art, but they're also applicable to other efforts too. love that
❤
If i walked through here i wouldn't consider it art. Now BBC's 'In the night garden', that is art. That truely makes me reconsider how i experience nature.
Thank you for putting this together. What song is playing in the background?
Got it in the credits at 2:06
I'm so surprised this did not receive more attention! I love Ms. Carter's brilliant, warm commentary. The Amon Carter has been my favorite museum locally since moving here 30+ years ago. I have a degree in Anerican Studies, and know a little about art - many of her favorites have always been mine as well. Now I have a few more insights, and wonderful stories to go along with me when I next visit!
He has such a great perspective!!! ❤
Thankyou
It is insane how ancient this technique is. It seems so complicated, but every old Bronze Age culture (Indus valley, Persia, Mesopotamia, Egypt, Mediterranean Europe West Africa, etc.) adopted the lost wax casting method very early, pretty much as described here (except the gelatin part - that's a more modern twist). Except the ancient Chinese for some reason. The Chinese used the "piece-mold" casting method. Which seems more straightforward, but is in practice more cumbersome and yields coarser bronzes. Not sure why Chinese metallurgy didn't embrace the lost wax method. Certainly seemed capable, and would have known of examples from India and Persia. Beeswax too expensive in China?

Also see these I'm ancient Egypt
Indeed
Amon Carter founded the museum for his Remington and Russell collection but the collision has expanded beyond his original idea I visited many years ago and was blown away by a show featuring the woodcuts and engravings of Jose Guadalupe Pisada. His energetic, satirical works included many of the Dia de Los Muertos images we know If would love to revisit Fort Worth but the museum's website reflects the depth of the collection. Cowboy pictures, glamorous skeletons and so much more...
Many relatives confirmed the 1898 Tours of the SF Bay Area
I have seen similar pictures in a family photo diary MWM
I met a man who flew on one to Africa Nicky Ballytine of WoodBridge, Ca !
Some of these airships show a gyroscope called a “ballancier” dangling right at the bottom.
Soo. That Blimp WHY IN HEAVENS did they choose an E minor played on a tuber ... People that scares children THAT SCREAD ME!
She has nothing but negative things to say about all of the people of color in her photos. Or has nothing to say about them at all. Doesn't remember anything about them but goes on and on about the all the privileged white ranch people. She takes pictures of these poor, desperate people just so the world can gawk and judge them. Garbage.
Thank you for posting this! I love the show and it's so fantastic to be able to see a little of it again. The docent did an amazing job! I was born in Arkansas and live currently in Dallas, teach high school art, and paint as much as I can, so I really relate to Everett Spruce!
There has very clearly been some miscommunication I came here for igglepiggle I will now politely leave
You brought string art to a complete different level ! Congratulations !

hm.. not many views, but gave me a great idea for an art project thanks! (we don't have the time for wire sculpting). Not sure your original idea was to mimic Asawa's art, did you think/end up connecting the three baskets and hanging them?
I want there on a Field trip
This is stunning. Looking at it gives me such a feeling of peace.
Thank you for the good video, can you tell me the reason for using iron nails? Why
You mean the chapelets? It is to hold the inner core plaster in place. Without the metal nails or pins, then when the wax melts out, the core will become loose and drop. So you need the nails to suspend it in space. You want the molten bronze to fill the lost wax space between the external plaster and internal core. If the internal core is not suspended by the pins, it will drop and there will be no space between external & internal plaster towards the bottom for the molten bronze to go. You'd only end up with a half-statue. So the pins suspend the core up in space and makes sure the molten bronze goes all the way around. Of course, by having the pins, the final bronze statue will have a few little holes (where the pins were). So part of the final stage is plugging those holes with tiny bronze plugs.
The film was informative
INTOXICATING ! Thank you for posting. Good Vibes 👣
Scott is a vital piece of fibre art history
super
Please when I pour the melted copper into the heart it starts to boil and the resulting shape is distorted why

The great harappa civilization! Which gifted many techniques to the world.
Es agrable ver estos vídeos ilustrativos felicidades,y la temperatura del molde cual seria,también la de fundición? ,Se los agradecería su información.Gracias.
we're not looking for some lady talking about flowers, where is our childhood?!
very interesting !
Very interesting talk. I knew of Finis Welch through his Cutting Horse program. I never had the opportunity to visit with him but saw him at nearly every Western Bloodstock sale I photographed. I did not know he was a collector until I saw a few of his photographs in an exhibition at the Amon Carter a number of years ago.
Awesome presentation with all the key steps clearly depicted and explained. Kudos, Amon Carter Museum!
