Bronze Sculpture Austrian Carl Kauba Rodeo Cowboy Marble, circa 1900
By Carl Kauba
Located in Hamilton, Ontario
Early 20th century bronze on Marble slab sculpture of a bronco rodeo cowboy on horse by Austrian artist Carl Kauba. Weighing a heavy 18 pounds with a solid marble base, Kauba has amazing intricate detail from the reins to the cowboys face and horses hoofs.
Carl Kauba (1865-1922)
Carl Kauba was born August 13, 1865 in Vienna, Austria. The son of a shoemaker, Kauba chose to follow his calling into the world of art. Collectors now rank him in a class with Remington and Russell as one of the great portrayers of American Western. His subjects were typically Native American Indians, Cavalrymen, Cowboys, and Roughriders. In addition to his American bronzes, Kauba produced a lifetime’s worth of Austrian statuary. His work became fully appreciated on both sides of the Atlantic.
Carl studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna under professor Laufenberg. Later he would study at the academies under Carl Waschmann and Stefan Schwartz. Next, he went to Paris in 1886 to further study before he set off for the U.S.
Kauba’s fascination with the West was fired by the stories of the German writer, Carl May, whose tales of Western adventure were well known throughout Europe. Most authorities feel that he was about twenty-five years old when he traveled widely throughout the American West. He then returned to Austria with voluminous notes, sketches, and several models of Western sculpture...

The Snaked Altar Column Statue Compressed Marble Powder Sculpture Bergama Museum
By LAGU
Located in İSTANBUL, TR
Weight: 8 kg
The Snaked Altar, situated atop a marble column at the entrance square of the Ancient City of Asclepion, holds the distinction of being recognized as the earliest symbol of medicine and pharmacy.
The altar's prominent position within the Asclepion complex highlights its importance in the context of ancient medical practices. It served as a visual representation of the profound connection between spirituality and healing, as Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine, was often depicted alongside snakes, which were regarded as symbols of rebirth and rejuvenation.
Today, the original Snaked Altar finds its rightful place of honor in the prestigious Bergama Museum. Visitors to the museum can marvel at its intricate details and appreciate the craftsmanship of the ancient artisans who sculpted it. The altar's preservation allows us to delve into the depths of history and gain insights into the ancient world's understanding and reverence for medicine.
