Saint-Gaudens National Historical Park in Cornish, NH, preserves the home, gardens, and studios of Augustus Saint-Gaudens, one of America's foremost sculptors. It served as his summer residence from 1885 to 1897 and became his permanent home from 1900 until his death in 1907, also forming the heart of the Cornish Art Colony. Visit the Work Studio and Gardens, where Saint-Gaudens crafted his masterpieces and stroll through the beautiful gardens. Explore Aspet, the home of Augustus, Augusta and Homer Saint-Gaudens.
