Arthur Lee (May 4, 1881 – 1961) was an American sculptor, born in Trondheim, Norway. His family immigrated to the United States in 1888, settling in St. Paul, Minnesota.[2] He studied at the Art Students League in New York City before returning to Europe to study the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, as well as in Rome and London.[3][4]
He was one of the more conservative artists who exhibited at the Armory Show in 1913 where he displayed eight drawings and sculptures[5] and was one of a dozen sculptors invited to compete in the Pioneer Woman statue competition in 1927.[6] He also taught; among his pupils was Eleanor Platt.[7]
Lee was a member of the National Sculpture Society and the National Academy of Design. He died in 1961.
