Barney Mausoleum Reproductions

About

Forest Park – Springfield, MA

2004

 

 

Everett Hosmer Barney and his wife and son are buried here. Everett Barney’s wealth came from fabricating weaponry for the Civil War and from his other business endeavors. He located this mausoleum, in what is now Forest Park, near their mansion. He bequeathed his estate and an endowment to Springfield to create a public park. For Skylight Studios’s project, the sculptural elements were restored, molds were fabricated, and the sculptures were reproduced in polyester resin to replace the originals.
