    William Edmondson Sculpture, Lady with a Bustle

    William Edmondson (American/Tennessee, 1874-1951) carved limestone sculpture depicting a standing woman with well-defined, shoulder-length hair who wears a dress or apron with a bustle and short train in back, visible shoes, and a necklace or banded collar. She carries a small handbag in her right hand. 13 3/8" H x 5" W x 7" D. Note: This sculpture was acquired through Myron King, owner of Lyzon Gallery in Nashville, which represented Edmondson prior to and for many years after his death. For at least the past forty years, it has been in the same Middle Tennessee family collection as The Preacher, an Edmondson sculpture auctioned by Case in 2020. Unlike the "Preacher," which had been in at least two museum exhibitions, this "Lady" sculpture has never been publicly exhibited until now.
