Sculptures

This is a bronze sculpture of a cowboy on a bucking bronco, by Carl Kauba.

Bronze sculptures depicting cowboys and scenes from the American West gained popularity in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, capturing the spirit of the frontier.

Artists like Frederic Remington and Charles Marion Russell helped to define this genre, creating iconic representations of cowboys, Native Americans, and the landscapes of the West. These sculptures often celebrated the rugged individualism and adventurous spirit associated with the era.

Carl Kauba was an Austrian sculptor known for his detailed bronze figures, many of which depicted scenes from the American West. His works often featured cowboys, Native Americans, and other characters, rendered with a high degree of realism and dynamism.

Kauba’s sculptures were popular among collectors and helped to spread the romanticized image of the American West throughout Europe.

Made in Austria (likely).
