Paul Wayland Bartlett

Paul Wayland Bartlett (January 24, 1865 – 1925) was an American sculptor. He was born in New Haven, Connecticut, the son of Truman Howe Bartlett, an art critic and sculptor.

When fifteen he began to study in Paris under Emmanuel Frémiet, modelling from animals in the Jardin des Plantes. He won a medal at the Paris Salon of 1887.

Among his principal works are "Bohemian Bear Tamer," in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; the equestrian statue of Lafayette, in the Cours Albert 1er, Paris, presented to the French Republic by the schoolchildren of America; the powerful and virile "Columbus and Michelangelo", in the Congressional Library, Washington, DC; the "Ghost Dancer", in the Pennsylvania Academy, Philadelphia; the "Dying Lion"; the equestrian statue of McClellan in Philadelphia; and a statue of Joseph Warren in Boston, Massachusetts. His bronze patinas of reptiles, insects and fish are also remarkable.
