Biographical History
Launt Thompson was born in Ireland and emigrated to the United States as a youth. His drawings caught the eye of sculptor Erastus Dow Palmer, and he became Palmer's most celebrated pupil. He opened a studio in New York, and produced a variety of sculptures and castings, including portrait busts of William Cullen Bryant, 'Grizzly' Adams, and Edwin Booth. He contributed greatly to public sculpture after the Civil War, producing fresh and realistic statues and monuments throughout the Eastern United States. He lived in Italy for several years.
