CHARLES ATWOOD. Sculpture

Sculpture, in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, was not simply ornament. It was not just "lobby" sculpture, or "plaza" sculpture.   A sculpture's location, size, subject matter and purpose were integral to the building as a whole. 

Charles Atwoods' Fine Arts Building at the Columbian Exposition would not be complete without Phillip Martiny's sculpture.  Both are better for the other.
