The Boston Women's Memorial sits on the historic Commonwealth Avenue Mall in Boston and honors Abigail Adams, Lucy Stone and Phillis Wheatley. Unlike conventional statues that are larger than life or set high upon pedestals, the subjects of the Boston Women's Memorial are sculpted in a manner that invites the observer to interact with them. Instead of standing on their pedestals, they are using them. This video was produced for Primary Source of Watertown to help elementary and high school teachers introduce American art to their students.
Love the statue of Phillis Wheatley!!!! Nice work on the art!!!
