[edit]DescriptionDetail, Daniel Chester French's 1904 Bronze, "Labor Reading" (Pittsburgh, PA) (2896336385).jpg |
The plaque at the base reads: "To Colonel James Anderson, founder of free libraries in Western Pennsylvania. He opened his library to working boys and on Saturday afternoons acted as librarian, thus dedicating not only his books, but himself to the noble work. This monument is erected in grateful rememberance by Andrew Carnegie, one of the 'working boys' to whom were thus opened the precious treasures of knowledge and imagination through which youth may ascend." --- For more on the "James Anderson Library Institute of Allegheny City" founded in 1850, see George Thornton Fleming's 1922 History of Pittsburgh and Environs, from Prehistoric Days to the Beginning of the American Revolution, p. 622: <a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=k_kMAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA622&lpg=PA622" rel="noreferrer nofollow">books.google.com/books?id=k_kMAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA622&l...</a> --- For more on the sculpture, see: <a href="http://www.clpgh.org/exhibit/french1.html" rel="noreferrer nofollow">www.clpgh.org/exhibit/french1.html</a> <a href="http://siris-artinventories.si.edu/ipac20/ipac.jsp?uri=full=3100001~!27196!0" rel="noreferrer nofollow">siris-artinventories.si.edu/ipac20/ipac.jsp?uri=full=3100...</a> |
