by world famous western artist Carl Kauba (1865-1922) entitled "For Death or Glory" hand signed. Measures 32"h x 10"w x 10"l. on marble base. Carl Kauba was an Austrian sculptor of Western American bronzes specializing in Indians. Kauba was the pupil of Carl Waschmann and Stefan Schwartz in Austria. He traveled widely in the American West, sketching and modeling, about 1895. He returned to Vienna where his Western bronzes were cast for the American market between 1895 and 1912. Small and medium bronzes were sometimes polychromed at the foundry. This is a highly collectable original bronze from a well noted western artist similar pieces have brought upwards of 50,000 in galleries.
