This page should not be speedily deleted because... The artist is notable. I produced three citations. Seems enough. What more is needed besides notability? --Library Guy (talk) 20:20, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Webster has works in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Art Institute of Chicago, Biblioteque Natioale of France and Victoria & Albert Museum, Yale Art Gallery and Harvard's Fogg Museum His work got to Harvard because Paul Sachs Collected it. You might consider this article a stub but it should be expanded NOT speedily deleted. Nicodemus (talk) 21:22, 23 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]


ERROR IN FACT

[edit]

It has been several days since I read this page completely but the statement that Herman A Webster died in New York is taken from Reed Anderson's exhibition catalogue. This is stated, without a source as is much of what of what Anderson writes, and is incorrect. The Yale University Alumni Records for Herman Webster contain: 1. a letter written by his wife Moune Webster stating that he died on March 9, 1970, at Hospital Ambrose Pare, Paris, 2. The Alumni Records also contain an obituary from March 13, 1970, from the New York Herald Tribune with a dateline of Paris confirming his death. If the Author does not choose to change the place of Webster's death I will be forced to so. Anderson's errors of omission in Webster's case are understandable and forgivable. His errors of fact and misattribution of sources are not. Nicodemus (talk) 13:42, 16 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Why haven't you corrected the error, Oldsilenus? You do not need permission from anybody. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 01:49, 24 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
