À propos de la sculpture
William Campbell Preston was the elder brother of John S. Preston, who funded Hiram Powers’s move to Italy in 1837. The Preston brothers became significant patrons of the artist during his time in Washington, commissioning portraits and introducing him to prominent men in the city. Senator Preston and his wife ordered marble replicas of their portraits to be completed after Powers reached Italy, giving the artist some guaranteed income after his departure from America.
