Snapshot Story: Seward Johnson’s Bronze Sculptures

Mount Saint Mary Park
Saint Charles, Illinois
Kane County

I’ve been deeply fascinated with Seward Johnson’s life-size bronze figurative sculptures for a number of years ever since I stumbled upon his work, due to their whimsical nature. Enjoy seeking out his work whenever possible!


Soon after I started seriously working on my photography in 2020, I began making an annual pilgrimage to Mount Saint Mary Park each summer in order to see some of the temporary artwork that’s placed there. I’m always excited when one of a Seward Johnson bronze sculpture is placed there.

Looking forward to visiting other cities and states where his work is at!
