Life Masks and Hearths
August 20, 2009
Posted in: Food and drink, Monticello, the House, Research, A Summary View, Thomas Jefferson
Two articles with TJ/Monticello content in the latest issue of Early American Life:
- "The Faces of a Generation," by Audrey J. Wolfe, about sculptor John Browere (who did a near-deadly life mask of Jefferson - there's a rather horrifying description of the proceedings by granddaughter Virginia here)
- "Early Cooking Hearths," by Gregory LeFever, which contains glamor shots of our newly-restored kitchen at Monticello
