Woman Preparing Her Son

WOMAN PREPARING HER SON

Sculpted by Florence Hansen from Dennis Smith's impressive life-sized bronze in Nauvoo, Ill. "I see in this woman the gratitude she feels for the privilege of raising this special spirit. He's developed the confidence that she has instilled in him and he's ready to take his responsibilities."

All through the ages, mothers have firmly yet lovingly guided their sons toward adulthood. In this timeless portrayal, the hope and concern a mother feels for her son are eloquently displayed.
