Willard Dryden Paddock
Willard Dryden Paddock (October 23, 1873 – November 25, 1956), was an American painter and sculptor. Born in Brooklyn, New York, he studied at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn under the tutelage of sculptor Herbert Adams, before traveling to Paris to study at the  Académie Colarossi under the painters Gustave-Claude-Etienne Courtois and Louis Auguste Girardot. Paddock is perhaps better known for his sculptural work, which garnered national attention, and included memorial structures, fountains, busts, figures, and sundials. Selected works

Certain other sculptures by Paddock were surveyed and documented by the "Save Outdoor Sculpture!" project. References
