Erich Schdmit-Kestner (1877-1941): Abschied von Alexander (Farewell to Alexander)

*
Auktionshaus Dr. Hull, Koln, DE has recently listed this beautiful bronze, Farewell to Alexander, in their current auction catalog by the famous German sculptor Erich Schdmit-Kestner (1877-1941). Schdmit-Kestner studied at the Art Academy in Berlin and the Dusseldorf Art Academy. He took many prizes for his monumental works and later taught sculpture. I love the nobility of this particular bronze. Enjoy.
