Portrait bust of a young child. Plaster portrait bust on pedestal done before casting in bronze, signed on the back of the pedestal and dated '62, approx. 14-1/4"H x 6"W x 5-1/4"D. Provenance: in the current owner's family since mid 20th century, gifted to them by Richard Sedlon, a family member. This is a fine example of the commissioned portrait busts in Sinz' later work, with fine detail and sensitive technique.
Walter Sinz studied at the Cleveland School of Art and later taught there. At one time he also studied at the famous Academie Julian in Paris. He retired from teaching in 1952 to devote himself to sculpture commissions. He exhibited work at the Cleveland Museum of Art May Shows for many years, and also designed sculpture for Cowan Pottery Studios.
