Ward, John Quincy Adams
(redirected from Ward, Edgar Melville)

    Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.02 sec.

Ward, John Quincy Adams (1830–1910)

US sculptor. Unlike many of his contemporaries, he largely rejected European influences in his aim to develop a truly American idiom. His work is distinguished by a bold realism. His sculptures include Indian Hunter 1968 (Central Park, New York) and the portrait Henry Ward Beecher 1891 (Borough Hall Square, Brooklyn).

Ward was born in Urbana, Ohio. He studied under Henry Kirke Brown (1814–1886), assisting him with the bronze equestrian statue of George Washington in Union Square, New York, 1865.
