Popular Post Zebo Posted November 15, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 15, 2022 an interesting look at Laura Gardin Fraser from 1929. I enjoy her work, as well as her husbands. https://numismatics.org/pocketchange/the-medal-maker/ rrantique, Fenntucky Mike, Quintus Arrius and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus Arrius Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Fine video. Interesting that Medallic Art was in business for 113 years, and, if the figures given are accurate, Laura Fraser was 40 when the motion picture footage was taken----and lived to the ripe old age of 107. I seriously doubt very many people today would be up to the task of executing a work, from scratch, using a live model, in the labor-intensive way Laura Fraser did. A lot of that work performed nearly a century ago appeared to be drawn of trial and error. Very illuminating film! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
