The Letter From Home Life-size Bronze Sculpture Allegory by James Muir Bronze Allegorical Sculptor-Artist
Lifesize Commission for the Cook Museum at Navarro College in Corsicana, Texas - Installation Spring 2002
Depicts emotions of longing felt by soldiers on many battlefields in many wars.
During a lull in the battle, this young Confederate soldier, with Boyle, Gamble and MacFee sabre bayonet fixed on his "Mississippi" rifle ready for the next charge, takes a few precious moments--possibly his last--to read for perhaps the hundredth time the "Letter from Home."
