He found his passion sculpting bronze after studying at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. Known for their portrayal of Native Americans, cowboys, and calvary, Carl Kauba sculptures are rich with detail right down to the reins, weapons, and headdresses.

Kauba is also well known for his Naughties, a vintage series of mechanical, avant-garde sculptures. Find Carl Kauba bronze sculptures for sale alongside other rare bronze sculptures at Invaluable.
