Obviously, there is a market for remaking Emma. Just buy this guy's empty chair and make Emma one of Brigham's saints.

The real story is probably one where Emma wouldn't allow Brigham in her home alone or to touch her.

"Loyal to her husband for seventeen years through all the vicissitudes that his mission had entailed, Emma Smith was unable, at the end, to make the sacrifice that the doctrine of plural marriage required."

"Unable to condone continuation of the practice of plural marriage or the leadership of Brigham Young, who supported it, and ambivalent about the proper line of succession to her husband, Emma made her first priority after her husband's death the preservation of an inheritance for her five living children."

Obscene, isn't it?

Emma hated Brigham: she hated polygamy, she hated his sidelining her son as Joseph's successor.

And Brigham hated Emma, said she went to hell upon her death.

Mormons have no respect for history, no respect for reality.

They needed a much bigger table; in fact.

"Get your hand off my back, Brigham. I don't care how hard you pray--I'm not going to become one of your wives!"

what's with the plumbing pipes in the sculpture? Is this a fountain? (blubbering tears?)

Obscene, for sure.

Ironically, Brigham himself was all about a "preservation of an inheritance" as he grew nearer his god...

Garbage In = Garbage Out in most processes. Since all of MORmONISM is garbage, reflections of MORmONISM portrayed in MORmON art ends up being more MORmON garbage, regardless of which garbage version of MORmON "history" that the MORmON art is based on.

....how about an artistic rendering of a fantasy where Brigham Young gets gunned down right along side PERVERT Joseph Smith !!! or sculpture depicting Joseph and Brigham being hanged next to each other!!
