Talk:Adolph Alexander Weinman

Untitled

Unfortunately, all the sculpture shown on the "First Bank" link here is by Corrado Parducci. AA Weinman did do some work on this building, but it is not shown here. Perhaps I'll post some of it. Carptrash 23:20, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

Jefferson Memorial

I feel you should tell a at least a little about Weinman's work on the pedestal of the statue at the Jefferson Memorial.99.161.86.167 (talk) 22:47, 3 May 2008 (UTC)javanick28

There seems to be some disagreement

America (1903-07), Alexander Hamilton U.S. Custom House

The Four Continents, Alexander Hamilton U.S. Custom House

as to where this work is, but since it is not by Weinman i believe that the correct term is "moot." Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 14:47, 9 June 2012 (UTC)

Just plucked this out of Selected works

• The Four Continents: Europe, Africa, Asia, America (1903-07), four sculpture groups, Alexander Hamilton U.S. Custom House, New York City, Cass Gilbert, architect. Carptrash (talk) 14:51, 9 June 2012 (UTC)

SIRIS lists French and Weinman as the sculptors of the Four Continents, with the Piccirilli Brothers as the carvers. Is this wrong? BoringHistoryGuy (talk) 17:39, 9 June 2012 (UTC)

The primary contract was with French, who had as his associate, Weinman. I've created a category on the commons with links to both French and Weinman. Also, AIA Guide to NYC has Weinman, associate.Zeete (talk) 16:32, 22 March 2013 (UTC)

Richman, in what I feel is the best book about French's work (at least the best one I have), states that French chose to include Weinman's name as an assistant on all four groups but that none of the surviving correspondence explains why. He further states that this is only the second time in "the history of American sculpture" that an assistant was so recognized. Neither of the two publications on Weinman that I have include the Continents in their listing of his works.
