he declared, conducting her to
the figurehead called Dolores"
isn't she a love!" he ex-
claimed as she stood before
the carved figure of a girl
wearing a blue dress, a wreath
of flowers over her plcnd locks
and holding a red-colored
flower in her hand.
A contrast to the winsome
Dolores" Is another figure
head of a woman, also holding
a flower in her hand. It has
been entitled Lady With
Rose" "But she looks like a
sailors mol, doesn't she?"
Mrs. Dougherty asked.
Jenny Lind, the Swedish
Nightingale" is the subject of
a graceful hgurehead also
copied at the Mariners Mu-
scum. Sailors adored the
famous singer, Mrs. Dough-
erty pointed out, and turned
out in large numbers for her
concerts when She sang in port
cities. Miss Lind, in turn, con-
tributed generously to the re-
ligious work carried out at
their bethels.
Origin Unknown
Mrs. DoQgherty likes to
think that the Jenny Lind
figure adorned one of the sew
eral ships named "Nightin-
gale" although its origin is not
really known.
The figureheads copied by
Mrs. Dougherty range from
Evening star., 1954-12-19

about two to 10 feet in height.
Some are by such famous
sculptors as Saint Gaudens,
but crude carvings also found
their way TO many a ships
prov.
"The colors of those in the
museums are not always dis
tinct," Mrs. Dougherty said.
Some are mounted just as
they were purchased. Most of
those at the Mariners Museum
at Newport News, however,
have been restored and are in
excellent condition"
Mrs, Dougherty, who consid-
ers that Alexandria is now her
home, had never painted seri-
ously until her children were
grown. She took IL upaat the
insistence of her late husband,
the Rev. George Pryor Dough-
erty, an Episcopal clergyman
of New Jersey.
Her father was DR.. Jesse
Lyman Hurlbut, a Methodist
minister who was we'll known
for his STORY of the Bible"
published 10 years ago and still
popular today.

cal figure I have come across"
Mrs. Dougherty reported. "It's
in the museum at Mystic Sea-
port, that lovely reconstructed
coastal seaport at Mystic,
Conn.,"
A figure in Scottish kits and
another in the garb of the Near
East also made colorful paint
ings and variety is afforded by
the figure of a man carrying a
sickle and a sheaf of wheat
which she thinks probably was
q deck ornament of a ship
originally named 1.-THE Reap
err"
"Often the figureheads por-
trayed the owner or captain
of a ship, while many are por-
/. traits of national heroes, such
as Benjamin Franklin and An
drew Jackson. Mrs. Dougherty
pOlut6Q OUL.
Seamen were very super
stitious about the flgureheads
and didn't like to go out If the
one on their ship was broken,
the artist said. They also de-
veloped great fondness for
them.
Dolores a Fovorite
When Mrs. Dougherty first
arrived at the Mariners Muse
um at Newport News with her
easel and brushes, she found
this affection was shared by
one Of the guards.
Before she had time to look
around, he took her in tow. II

had no idea Of doing anything
more than painting a group
Of attractive pictures. But I
soon found I was engaged In a
full-time pursuit"
In many cases, there is no
information at all identifying
the figureheads with the ships
from which they came, while
some have interesting histories
or legends.
Tracking down the latter
has led her into the highways
and hyways of research and
she Is also writing articles
based on some of her findings.
Between the two, she has given
up her art classes in which
she has taught some of Wash
ington and Alexandria's prom
inent residents over a period
OI i've years.
The figureheads often por-
trayed men, but feminine fig
ures were very popular and
predominant in Mrs. Dougher-
ty's paintings. Il selected them
because I thought they made
nicer pictures she explained.
Ecclesiastical Figure
One of the most picturesque
in her collection, however, ap-
parently represents a high
church official-an archbishop,
in Mrs. Dougherty's opinion.
He has a heavy beard and his
clerical robes are in lovely
shades of green with gold.

Artist Bertha Hurlbut Dough-
erty walked into the Mariners
Museum at Newport News, Va.
last spring, saw it's collection
of ship figureheads and walked
out with a new avocation.
IT became so interested in
the flgureheads," she said,
that asked If I might be
allowed to copy some Of them.'
Permission was forthcoming
and Mrs. Dougherty soon re-
turned. Taking a hotel room
nearby, she spent two weeks
painting watercolors of IL
which she thought would make
effective pictures.
That was just the beginning,

sociated with old sailing days.
