Professor Kurt Schmid-Ehmen (1901 - 1968)

Ehmen pieces are few and far between as most were important works of large size. Most notable works include the Feldhernnhalle Monument and the Nuremberg eagles.

This large example in bronze has a wingspan of over 40 inches and was probably situated on a wall or entrance of an important building. Third Reich Adler's are no doubt popular with collectors who wish to have an example to highlight a collection. This particular bird would no doubt rise to that occasion like no other. A very rare and desirable piece.
