To Lovers 
of Garden Sculpture 
The recent exhibition of Garden and Deco¬ 
rative Sculpture, held at the Gorham Gal¬ 
leries, was a convincing demonstration of 
the existing desire for works of art of this 
character on the part of the discriminating 
public. It also brought out the fact that 
lovers of Garden Sculpture were unaware 
that our native American Sculptors had 
attained such skill and proficiency in this 
fascinating branch of decorative art. 
Having acquired all the training and inspi¬ 
ration that the ateliers of the Old World 
could give, our native artists have evolved 
a new school of American Decorative Art 
which completely comprehends and har¬ 
monizes with American Decorative needs. 
The Gorham Galleries, sensing this new 
development, have fostered and encouraged 
it, and are now prepared to extend to lovers 
of garden sculpture, expert service in solving 
garden and decorative sculpture problems. 
For many years the Gorham Galleries have 
been in close touch with landscape artists 
and owners of country estates, and the ex¬ 
perience acquired in suggesting and plan¬ 
ning the sculptural details for gardens is 
now at the command of their patrons.
