Sculptures of Historical Subjects - Busts of John Paul Jones
Commissioned by the US Department of Navy
Sold through the ship's store
The images below show how Fred would make a clay model starting with the skin and bones, then adding the clothing for a more realistic feel before making a casting.
Different supports were used for the different sizes of the sculptures.
