The Church of the Intercession, 155th & Broadway, New York
Goodhue's Crypt by Lee Lawrie. 1929
This sketch is from Lawrie's archives at the Library of Congress, showing how he envisioned the tomb to be.
Death mask of Bertram Grosvernor Goodhue. Lawrie used this to model the head of the statue.
“The symbolism of Pegasus, the hoofed master of the ground and winged master of the air, continues to represent speed, strength, and artistic inspiration. Encompassing beauty and a sense of majesty, it is a guide for humankind beyond the physical world to the realm where the spirit can soar without limit.”
As pictured in my book, Lee Lawrie's Prairie Deco: History in Stone at the Nebraska State Capitol.
The act above Goodhue contains little portraits of his notable buildings.
