Sculpture of Brookgreen Gardens (Images of America)
Brookgreen GardensÂ’ expansive property exhibits the finest outdoor collection of American figurative sculpture in the world. It began in 1930 as a winter home for philanthropist Archer Milton Huntington and his wife, sculptor Anna Hyatt Huntington. When the Huntingtons founded Brookgreen Gardens in the following year, they initially placed artworks from their own collection. By 1932, they had begun to actively purchase sculpture and to commission prominent sculptors to create works for the gardens. This volume portrays BrookgreenÂ’s beginning as the first public sculpture garden in America and its rise as a respected museum of American sculpture. In 1992, it was designated a National Historic Landmark, recognizing Anna Hyatt HuntingtonÂ’s status as an important sculptor and patron of the arts and BrookgreenÂ’s significance as a site for womenÂ’s history in America.
