Desperado
by Carl Kauba
27″H x 8″ L

This bronze statue has a lot of great action depicted as this soldier and his horse descend down a steep rock.

Carl Kauba was born in Vienna in 1865 and died in 1922. Although he signed “Carl”, Kauba’s birth certificate officially identifies him as “Karl” son of an Austrian shoemaker. He never visited America hiimself but was inspired by the romantic stories written by the German, Carl May and many photographers and illustrations which he had seen. Also inspired by the possessions of a complete Western saddle and other Indian artifacts that an American friend from Ohio sent as gifts.

In contrast to most artists, Kauba’s success as a businessman was equal to his artistic achievements. He worked in a studio in his home and personally directed the casting of his clay models in local foundries.

This NEW bronze statue is hand finished and cast in the traditional Lost Wax Casting Process. This is a multi step process that insures a quality bronze sculpture that may be passed down from generation to generation. Each Sculpture is mounted on a beautiful marble base and includes an engraved brass plaque with sculpture name and artist. Most bronzes have the artist signatures on bronze. Each piece of art holds intricate details and realistic qualities, each a unique quality of art that blends the process of Lost Wax Casting Process as well as hands on detailing.
