A WRITER IN the London Art Journal who
sketches Lady Artists in Rome" says
From the same country as Miss Homer ID
Edmonis Lewis, a colored lady, whose ssx,
extreme youth and color invite our vArmest
sympathies. Born of at Indian mother and
negro father, she passed the first twelve
years Of her life in the ~ilds. fishing. hunt
ing, swimming and making moccasins. Her
love Of sculpture Was FIRST shown ON her see
ing a statue Of franklin. i will make some
thing like that she said to q benevolent gen,
tleman who engaged an artist friend in New
York to permit her TO visit his studio Then
she had some clay given her and the model
of an infants foot, which she initiated so well
as TO merit praise and agement Il
often lnnged 10 return to the wilds.' she said
but my love OF sculpture forbade it.; aud
here she is alone, simple girl of twenty
three years of age, struggling against the pref
udce entertained toward her race, and com
petng with the finished masters Of the art.
As she has been here ,nly two months. she
has not much to show. A bust of Col. Shaw.
who commanded the first colored regiment
ever formed, IL a mer.orions work, aud has
been ordered by the family Of the brave colo
mel, who died fighting for his country. An
other bust, Of Mr.. Dionysius Lewis Of New
York. is nearly completed IA a commission
The fr>t idea work of our young artist is a
freed woman falling on her knees, and, with
clasped hands and uplitted eyes, thanking
God for the blessings of liberty. She has not
forgotten her people. and this. early dedica-
ton Of her genius TO their cause IS honorable
TO her feelings. Two other groups, the de
signs Of which are taken from Longfeilow's
Mnehahs, are nearly modelled. They rep
resent, first, Hiawatha coming to the wigwam
of his love, and laying down q deer at her
feet, in token Of an offer Of marriage and,
secondly, Hiawatha leading away his chosen
bride: so hand in hand they. went
