Description |
English: PH Coll 844.12 Seattle sculptor James Wehn trained in the Pacific Northwest and in Chicago. His most noted sculpture in Seattle is probably the bronze statue of Chief Seattle, completed in 1912, that stands in Tilikum Place Park near the monorail. Wehn was the first head of the University of Washington's sculpture department from 1919-1924.
The date "between 1870 and 1896" provided at https://digitalcollections.lib.washington.edu/digital/collection/portraits/id/765 is certainly wrong, perhaps based on a misassumption that this was within Princess Angeline's lifetime. Sculptor James Wehn wasn't even born in 1879, and in 1896 he was all of 13-14 years old. See Fred F. Poyner IV, "Wehn, James A. (1882-1973)", HistoryLink Essay #10773, 2014-04-18. That article says this was Wehn's first-ever bronze; if I read correctly it dates it as 1905 ("Ten years later" than when Wehn recalled having seen her, in April 1985.) He'd have been 22 or 23 at that time, which seems reasonable as a date for a sculptor's first bronze. Sculptor:
