Ms. Goodacre passed away earlier this year but is fondly remembered as America's premier portrait sculptor. Her well-known sculptures include the Women's Vietnam Memorial in Washington, D.C., the Sacagawea design on the United States Dollar coin, and the massive thirty-five figure Irish Memorial in Philadelphia.
'Waterbearer' depicts a traditional Pueblo woman. It was made in a very small edition of fifteen. It is also of note that with this bronze, Ms. Goodacre did each pot design personally with patina chemicals so that every pot design is different. This makes for a truly unique work and a wonderful bronze for collecting... or gift-giving.
