Franz Bergman - Cold Painted Bronze Parakeet

A Wonderful Good Sized Cold Painted Bronze of a Parakeet by Franz Bergman (1861-1936).

Austrian artist Franz Bergman, born in the 19th century, is well known for the many sculptures produced at his foundry in Vienna. The inherited bronze factory was originally opened by his father, but Bergman had such success with his work that he was able to open a second one later in life. Despite the fact that he is often referred to as a sculptor, Franz Bergman was actually a designer who hired other sculptors to carry out his ideas. Artist Franz Bergman had his designs made in bronze and cold painted with many layers of vivid colors.
