FREDERIC AUGUSTE BARTHOLDI.
Born about 1835.
The sculptor, Bartholdi, was born in France, where he still
resides. The work of the colossal statue of ’’Liberty En-
lightening the World” is from the hands of this famous
French sculptor.
As a pupil of the famous Ary Scheffer, his artistic ability
was recognized in the bas-

Rimini,” executed in 1852.
His name was brought
into pleasing prominence
in the United States in the
year 1872. when his well-
known statue of Lafayette
was forwarded as a gift
from the people of France.
At the centennial exhi-
bition, where he was one
of the French commission-
ers, he was awarded a
medal for the exhibition of
the fine bronze statues of
4 4 Peace,” '-The Young
Vine Grower,” and «Ge-

ery.” M. Bartholdi is a m. bartholdi.

tions. He therefore volunteered his artistic services in the
