Portrait of Homer Saint-Gaudens and his mother by John Singer Sargent, 1890.

Homer Shiff Saint-Gaudens (1880-1958) was the only child of sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens and his wife Augusta (née Homer). He served as the Director of the Art Museum of the Carnegie Institute and was a founder of the Saint-Gaudens Memorial, a non-profit organization that maintained the family home as a museum before its donation to the National Park Service in 1965.

Saint-Gaudens was featured on the cover of Time magazine for its 12 May 1924 edition.
