Olin Levi Warner

marble, 1874

 

Olin Levi Warner (1844 – 1896) was noted for the striking bas relief portrait medallions and busts he created in the late 19th century.

 

Warner was born in Suffield, Connecticut. In 1869 he had saved up enough money to move to Paris, where he studied sculpture at the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts under François Jouffroy, and worked as an assistant to Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux.

 

He was one of the founders and a member of the Society of American Artists in 1877, and an associate of the National Academy of Design in 1888.
