Probably best known for his Atlas at Rockefeller Center in New York City, Lee Oskar Lawrie was perhaps one of the most wide ranging architectural sculptors of the 20th Century in America.

This illustration is from his archives at the Library of Congress. Lawrie states in his unfinished autobiography, "Boy Wanted" that he worked on all of Architect Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue's buildings except one. That totals more than one hundred buildings across the country from coast-to-coast, and from Louisiana to Minnesota.

Lawrie was a humble man who worked from 1895 until his death in 1963, and was one of the United States' most prolific sculptors, yet hardly anyone knows his name.

This site is dedicated to identifying, locating and preserving the art of Lawrie's work, most of which, was never signed by him.
