Shot Put Athlete Sculpture By Julius Schmidt-Felling

$1,404.00

Bronze sculpture of shot-put athlete by Julius Schmidt-Felling.

The sculpting style of the athlete throwing a metal ball seems to be more of an art deco than the earlier realistic style of the artist.

The signature of the artist Julius Schmidt-Felling is clearly marked on the base of the sculpture.

Made probably during the early 20th century when the beginnings of the art deco style started to gain a following.
