Schumacher

 

Schumacher's bronze memorial has been cleaned. Bronze becomes verdigris in color. Green Lawn has increased its maintenance.
Frederick W. Schumacher was born in Copenhagen in 1863. He died in 1963, and i read he is buried in another Greenlawn Cemetery, a Lutheran one in Mahoning County. Schumacher made money in mining in Ontario. A good portion of the original collection of Columbus' art museum came from him.
Three sides of this bronze has pastoral scenes from ancient times. Priessman, Bauer & Company, Munich 1930s.
