The Met’s unparalleled collection of American art includes some 45 sculptures by Augustus Saint-Gaudens (1848–1907), the American Beaux-Arts sculptor who worked in New York, Paris, and Cornish, New Hampshire. Through the lens of these sculptures as well as some related loans, Augustus Saint-Gaudens in The Metropolitan Museum of Art offers an evaluation of the artist’s groundbreaking role in the history of late 19th-century American sculpture and the Aesthetic Movement.
