Preston Powers (1843 – 1931) American sculptor, painter, and teacher, born in Florence, Italy. He is also known as William Preston Powers.〔'Preston Powers.' American Art Museum Collections, Smithsonian Institution. (), Accessed October 25, 2013〕

==Biography==
Powers studied with his father, Hiram Powers, a well known Neo-classical sculptor 〔Mackay, James, The Dictionary of Sculptors in Bronze, Antique Collectors Club, Woodbridge, Suffolk 1977〕 and expatriate who lived in Italy. After returning to the United States, the younger Powers worked as an artist in Boston Massachusetts, Washington D.C. and Portland Maine.〔Opitz, Glenn B , Editor, ''Mantle Fielding’s Dictionary of American Painters, Sculptors & Engravers'', Apollo Book, Poughkeepsie NY, 1986〕 Powers eventually became his father's personal secretary, a position he held until Hiram Powers' death in 1873. Preston sued his mother for inadequate support after the details of his father's will became known, as it declared his widow as sole heir. In order to keep peace within the family, Preston Powers was made the supervisor of Hiram Powers' studio-workshop, which eventually closed in 1877. He later operated his own studio across the street from his mother's house but insisted on harassing her with additional lawsuits.〔Wunder, Richard P. 1991. ''Hiram Powers:Life,'' Volume 1. University of Delaware Press, p. 20〕 Preston Powers died penniless in Florence, Italy, and was buried in the pauper's section of the Allori Protestant Cemetery located outside the city.〔'Preston Powers.'
