Harriet Frishmuth’s Joy of the Waters, modeled in 1917, is an elegant and charming sculpture exemplary of the exuberant female nude figures for which the artist is acclaimed. Frishmuth’s desire to portray the “vibrant expression of the female form in self-assured abandon” is embodied in this vivacious bronze cast. (Captured Motion, The Sculpture of Harriet Whitney Frishmuth: A Catalogue of Works, p. 28) Joy of the Waters was conceived in two sizes, the sixty-one inch model produced in 1917 and the forty-four inch model in 1920. The present example of the larger model is from an edition of forty-four, which, considering its size and cost, speaks to Frishmuth’s pride in the model as well as its enthusiastic reception among collectors.
