Hermann Goering Bronze Bust # 3298
Life-size bronze bust of Hermann Göring by German sculptor Hermann Joachim Pagels. The bronze head measures approximately 12 1/2" tall, with an overall height of about 15", including the stepped marble base. The bronze was cast in Berlin at the Lauchhammer foundry. It is signed with "H.J. Pagels" and foundry stamped "Lauchhammer Bildguss 84". Stylistically modern, the blank eyes give it a neoclassical look. It is one of the strongest portraits of Göring created during the Third Reich period. Pagels portrait busts come on the market rarely and are by far some of the most sought-after. Weighs almost 25lbs! The condition is excellent. The original base has a few minor chips and losses, but finding one with an original base is almost impossible in any condition!
