Recommended: The Sculptor's Funeral

Harriet Goodhue Hosmer, Medusa, c. 1854, marble, Hood Museum of Art, Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, USA.

Produced by sculptor Jason Arkles a few years ago, this series includes a number of pre-modern sculptors whose work is little known today, like the American neo-classical sculptor Harriet Hosmer. There are dozens of episodes to browse through, from the Colossus of Rhodes to Gutzon Borglum, the sculptor of Mount Rushmore National Monument in South Dakota. Many of the subjects are North American, but there are also plenty of Greeks, Italians and one episode on the Terracotta Warriors.
