Description
December 2020 marks the 400th anniversary of the Pilgrim's Mayflower landing in Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1620. Because the Tony Award has been passed on to artists around the world on different continents, I decided to take the Tony on a waterfront walk with me.
I made a collage of the Tony with the monuments representing the Pilgrims, the Wampanoags and immigrants that came later and settled in our town. The Tony is in every photo representing ALL people.
L to R: "Forefather's monument in the distance. The overall scheme was designed by architect Hammatt Billings. The 36-foot figure of Faith was based on a 9-foot plaster model by William Rimmer in 1875 that was enlarged and altered by Joseph Edward Billings and a sculptor named Perry (probably John D. Perry). The subsidiary statues were executed by area sculptors including Alexander Doyle, Carl Conrads, and James H. Mahoney." Wiki

...v...best to you, Janice, DECEMBER 2020 FAA TONY AWARD WINNER! It is so befitting that you chose to walk thru history, showcasing so many historical sites and statuaries from your (and my) beautiful home state of Massachusetts in commemoration of ALL people. Your collage retrospectives are stunning, speaking to our Nation’s brief but resilient history against the millennia. So well done.
