Artwork Description

From 1950 to 1953, Paul Manship was president of the Century Association, which was organized in 1847 as an exclusively male club for amateurs and professionals in the arts and letters. This award was established in 1954 by the association’s Board of Management. The name of the recipient was to be engraved on the banner modeled on the reverse.
