Gallery Guide

Welcome to the gallery guide to George Stuart’s Historical Figures. Each Figure portrayed was important to the political power structure of their time. Mr. Stuart sculpts each subject as a three-dimensional, quarter life-size portrait. Viewers get a firsthand look at how these special people appeared during their lifetimes.

The gallery exhibits are organized in topical groups, as they were created to support Stuart’s entertaining monologs. The groups represent American history, Chinese history, English history, Russian history, and more, including France and Italy. In addition, there are multinational groups including the Renaissance and Reformation, the Movement West, and more. Check back frequently for new photographs.
