Joel Tanner Hart
Joel Tanner Hart (February 10, 1810 - March 2, 1877) was an American sculptor.
==Life and work==
Joel Tanner Hart was born near Winchester, Kentucky and was a sculptor of importance during America's antebellum years. As a young man, he worked as a stone-cutter, developing his skills as a sculptor. In the 1840s he joined a growing artistic and literary community in Florence, Italy where he lived for the remainder of his life.
Joel Tanner Hart is best known for busts of Andrew Jackson (1838) and Henry Clay (1847). As well, he carved those of John Jordan Crittenden and Cassius M. Clay and created the statues called ''Il Penseroso'' (1853) and ''Woman Triumphant'' that stood at the Fayette County courthouse until it was destroyed by fire in 1897.
He also sculpted the bas-relief for the tombstone of Southwood Smith in the English Cemetery in Florence. Hart died in Florence in 1877 and was buried in the same English Cemetery. By Legislative Act, his remains were later exhumed and returned to his native state of Kentucky for reinterment in the Frankfort Cemetery in Frankfort, Kentucky.
