This 1930’s Austrian art deco pencil drawing is a study for a monument by Heinrich-Karl Scholz (1880 - ). Scholz was well known in the first half of the 20th Century as a sculptor and his bronzes have sold at auction in Europe and America. The drawing, which depicts two helmeted nude figures, one with a sword inside an alcove with inscriptions on either side, is annotated 1:5 indicating the final sculpture would be almost five feet tall. The drawing measures 17 3/8” x 11 ¾” and is presented matted in a brown wood frame measuring 21 ½” x 17”. The drawing is signed on the lower right “H.K. Scholz 1930” and has his blindstamp on the lower left.
