Description
Bird Girl is a sculpture made in 1936 by Sylvia Shaw Judson in Lake Forest, Illinois. It was sculpted at Ragdale, her family’s summer home, and achieved fame when it was featured on the cover of the 1994 non-fiction novel Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. Originally exhibited as Girl with Bowls at the Art Institute of Chicago in 1938, it was also exhibited as Fountain Figure, Standing Figure, and Peasant Girl. A 1967 book by Judson first referred to it as Bird Girl
Bird Girl is cast in bronze and stands 50 inches (130 cm) tall. She is the image of a young girl wearing a simple dress with a “contemplative, gracefully tilted gaze”[3] that “stands solid and quietly, a strong and simple form … a serene spirit that offers us in this troubled age the tranquility we find too seldom”.[4] The work was originally commissioned as a garden sculpture for a family in Massachusetts
