On January 6, I will be giving a talk at the Watertown Free Public Library at 7:30. The library owns several of Hosmer’s works, as well as her sculpting tools and a collection of her papers. The staff there was very generous and helpful as I worked on the book, especially in allowing me to use images the library owns. Hosmer’s childhood home, which no longer exists, was just a few blocks away from the library; below is a picture of what I approximate to be the view of the Charles that she would have had from the house.
