Rare 18" Standing Bronze Hitler 1933- P.H Kittler (1861-1944) # 3420

Offered here is a rare, large, early portrayal of Adolf Hitler in brown shirt, as he appeared in 1933, the first year of his becoming Reichskanzler. The bronze was sculpted by the well-known German monument sculptor and medalist Philipp Kittler.  Kittler was nearing the end of his career in 1933, already aged 72 at the time he created this model. The crisply detailed bronze measures 18" tall overall, and the bronze base, which is part of the casting, has an early, political style eagle and swastika raised on the front.  The bronze is signed Ph. Kittler, dated 1933 and bears the foundry mark of (Alois) Brandstetter Muenchen.  The piece is in exceptionally fine condition with no damage to the metal, or loss of the original dark chocolate patina.  Full figures of Hitler are extremely rare in the market. This is the only one by this artist to be offered for sale, and it may well be unique. 


Philipp Kittler (1861-1944) Philipp Kittler attended the Nuremberg School of Applied Arts because of his talent for drawing from 1877 to 1880. In the shop of his father, the master oaf Emanuel Kittler, he worked on the plastic decoration of tiles and stoves. For a Rococo oven, he received the 1st prize in the competition of the King Ludwig Prize Foundation. Around 1889 he moved to Nuremberg, where he ran an artisan studio from 1891–1893.

From 1893 to 1895 Kittler studied with Wilhelm von Rümann at the Munich Art Academy and won the Great Silver Medal as a high distinction. In Nuremberg, Kittler made the sculpture for the exhibition buildings of the 2nd Bavarian State Exhibition of 1896.
Kittler was a busy and successful sculptor. Many of his works can still be found in Nuremberg, Schwabach and Fürth:

Decorative fountain (1913) at the New Jewish Cemetery in Nuremberg
Minnesinger fountain in the Rosenaupark , previously in the Prateranlage in Nuremberg
Building sculpture at the Nuremberg Opera House , Richard-Wagner-Platz
Pomonabrunnen in Nuremberg, Sandreuthstrasse
Mourning Noris since 1934 in the Westfriedhof , previously on the square in front of the Laufer Tor (today Rathenauplatz) in Nuremberg (1920) [2]
Figure group at the entrance to the Nuremberg Zoo (1912) 
Modeler of figures for Rosenthal porcelain
There is a street named for him in his home town of Nuremberg.
