John Frazee (July 18, 1790 – February 24, 1852) was an American sculptor and architect.[1][2][3] The Smithsonian has a collection of many of his sculptures as well as paintings of Frazee by other artists including Asher B. Durand and Henry Colton Shumway.[4]

He was born in Rahway, New Jersey, and worked in the Neo-Classic tradition. He is known as being one of the first successful native born American sculptors and "the first American born sculptor to execute a bust in marble".[5] He is best known for his portrait busts, including of John Jay and Marquis De Lafayette. He carved sculptures for the Boston Athenaeum including of Chief Justice John Marshall and Daniel Webster.[6] He also received a commission to design the New York Customs House, later used as Federal Hall National Memorial.[6]

The sculptor Thomas Crawford began his career as a marble carver in Frazee's studio in New York City.[7]

In 1826, he helped found the National Academy of Design. [citation needed]

Group of rotations in 3 dimensions In mechanics and geometry, the 3D rotation group, often denoted SO(3), is the group of all rotations about the origin of three-dimensional Euclidean space R 3 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{3}} under the operation of composition.[1] By definition, a rotation about the origin is a transformation that preserves the origin, Euclidean distance (so it is an isometry), and orientation (i.e., handedness of space). Composing two rotations results in another ro...
