Stone Carving Monogrammed, Dated 1979

About the Item

A really wonderful stone carving on a slate or marble base. It as a unique monogram on it and it is dated 1979. The sculpture is not permanently affixed to the base but rests nicely in the hole of the base. The figure looks vaguely Inuit to me or may well be a Mayan figure. This one is a mystery.

Located in Palm Springs, CA
A great bronze wonderfully patinated and mounted on a slate base. It is signed Schumacher and dated 1989. We were lucky to acquire a number of this artist's works. From a 2012 article the following provides some insight into the artist: Gloucester TWP, Camden County College’s Marlin Gallery will present works by the late Cherry Hill sculptor Frederick Schumm in the show “Retrospective” starting March 21. Schumm was a native of Colorado Springs, Colo., who served in the United States Marine Corps during World War II. Driven by an interest in whittling and sculpture, he used G.I.

The playground pieces were featured in "Woman’s Day" magazine and can viewed online at you tube His bronze-casting innovations led to his receipt of a Fulbright Scholarship and two years of study in Florence, Italy. Upon his return to the United States, Schumm lived in New York...
