Bird Girl, 1936 - a photo on Flickriver

Bird Girl, 1936

            Artist:  Sylvia Shaw Judson (American, 1897-1978)

Bird Girl is best known as the subject of Savannah artist Jack Leigh’s photo for the cover of John Berendt’s book “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil” (1994).   Bird Girl was purchased around 1938 by Lucy Boyd Trosdal for the family plot in Bonaventure Cemetery.  After Berendt’s book brought thousands of visitors to Bonaventure, threatening the sanctity of the site, the family removed the sculpture, later loaning it to Telfair museums for safekeeping.
