Remarks:
The bust was paid for with contributions collected by the Lawrie Memorial Committee. Mrs. Arthur Linden served as landscape architect with Sam Hemming, President of the Academy of Arts, assisting her. Lee Oskar Lawrie was a famed Talbot County sculptor. Kiselewski was a long-time friend of Lawrie's and studied under him from 1921 to 1925. The pedestal on which the bust is mounted was given to the Academy of the Arts by a Baltimore museum.
