Chesterwood
Sculptor of the Lincoln Memorial, the "Minute Man" at Concord, Massachusetts, and many familiar public monuments, Daniel Chester French was a leading turn-of-the-century sculptor. His studio, nestled in the Berkshire mountains, provided a retreat from New York's urban life. Models, studies and full-size sculptures of his famous works are displayed in the studio, museum gallery, summer home and gardens.
