Mr. Bowditch has left the building.

The over-life-size plaster model for the bronze statue of Nathaniel Bowditch has left the Boston Athenaeum for the first time since its arrival in 1851. He doesn't get out much!

Read more about his departure at The Conservation of a Historic American Masterpiece, Boston Athenaeum E-Newsletter: November 2010, Volume 4, Issue 11. See also the Nathaniel Bowditch Statue on RobertBallHughes.com for more information about the statue.
