The Brookgreen collection contains over 2,000 works by 430 artists and in the words of Wayne Craven, author of the book, Sculpture in America, it is "unequaled in its size, focus on figurative works, visibility of the sculpture to the visitor, and integration within a garden setting."
Indoor galleries present exhibits of smaller sculptures, as well as paintings, etchings, and other artworks by internationally renowned artists. Often including works on loan from museums and private collections around the world, these exhibits give visitors an opportunity to see many important works of art.
Some of the well-known historical sculptors whose work is included in the collection are: Daniel Chester French (1850-1931), Frederic Remington (1861-1909), Augustus Saint-Gaudens (1848-1907), Paul Howard Manship (1885-1966), Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney (1877-1942), James Earle Fraser (1876-1953), Laura Gardin Fraser (1889-1966), Harriet Whitney Frishmuth (1880-1980), and of course, Anna Hyatt Huntington (1876-1973).
