Bronze Figure of a Native American Scout with Rifle by Carl Kauba, circa 1910

About the Item

A fine patinated bronze figure of a Native American scout with rifle, by Carl Kauba. Austrian, circa 1910. Signed in the cast 'Carl Kauba'. The figure cast as an American Native scout with rifle, crawling on a rocky slope. Carl Kauba (1865-1922) studied in Vienna under Carl Waschmann and Stefan Schwartz. Little is known about the life of this interesting sculptor who, in true Viennese style nearly always, but by no means exclusively, produced polychromatic bronzes, cold painted after casting and finishing. Initially inspired by the romantic stories of the American West written by the German Carl May, his work is normally restricted to scenes from the Wild West rather than specific animals. His period casts are often by the Bergman Foundry.

    Pair of patinated bronze Native American figures after Kauba Austrian, Early 20th Century Brave figure: Height 31cm, width 16cm, depth 19cm Chieftain figure: Height 28cm, width 16cm, depth 14cm This pair of cold-painted and patinated bronze figures were made by Alfonzo Titze, cast from models by Carl Kauba (1865-1922), who was a removed Austrian artist particularly known for his patinated bronze depictions of the Wild West.

Leaning forward his mouth is open as if he is shouting. A small feather headdress ornaments the figure's head. Vibrant red frills are decorating parts of the trousers and shirt, an animal fur boa, as well as a yellow, blue, and white scarf covering his body. The chieftain who is portrayed in the second figure is wearing traditional Native American clothing...
