- Scudder specialized in designing fountains and other garden statuary for American estates. Here she chose the gracefully shaped form of a young girl holding seaweed, engineering the fountain so that the water would flow as if it were dripping from the wet seaweed.
- Though Scudder routinely came to America to consult with clients and colleagues, her studios were located in France and Italy. It was in Florence that she developed her love of fountains.
