ABOUT STRIKING CHANGE - THE GREAT ARTISTIC COLLABORATION

Striking Change offers a fresh new look at the life of Augustus Saint-Gaudens - the man and the artist - and the remarkable partnership he forged with Theodore Roosevelt to reinvigorate the country's numismatic art. Author Michael Moran explores Saint-Gaudens's coin designs in the context of his monumental sculptures and American culture of the time. Through first-person accounts, behind-the-scenes conversations, and explosive public drama, we come to know the larger-than-life personalities involved in this renaissance of fine art. Striking Change illuminates the politics, the genius, the struggles, and ultimately the triumph of an extraordinary American journey. Size 6" x 9", hardcover with dustjacket. Fully illustrated. 480 pages, including 32 in full color.
