On View: Danforth Art Museum at Framingham State University Fuller Gallery 204 (Meta Fuller 4, Shelf 1)
Classification: Mold, Casting
Description: White mold in two parts with a red resin interior. Resin in roughly in the shape of a standing, robed figure.
Accrual Method: Collection was gifted to the Danforth in 2006. Unfortunately they sat uncatalogued for close to 10 years. It took until an IMLS grant awarded in 2015 through 2016 for this collection to be catalogued and put into the collections database. - Rachel 2021 Came to us from Robert Fuller
Provenance: Gift of the Meta V. W. Fuller Trust Part of the Estate of Meta V. W. Fuller from 1968-2001. In the collection of the Meta V. W. Fuller Trust, 2001-2006
Condition: Good: Rubber mold is adhered to one piece of the plaster cast. The rubber mold exhibits a tear along its full length where it is adhered. The free half of the plaster mold was apparently broken and repaired; a reinforcing thread is visible as is a diagonal line from the figure's shoulder to hip where it broke. A wire is embedded at the shoulder height, presumably to hold the two halves of the plaster mold together.
