Catherine Hampton was the sister-in-law of John Smith Preston, a close friend of Hiram Powers who funded the artist’s move to Italy. During the 1850s, Powers modeled several portrait busts of members of the Hampton family. This sculpture was not modeled from life, but from a cast done in 1849 by the artist Clark Mills, a rival of Powers.
