        George Zolnay (1863-1949) called the sculptor of the Confederacy

        Est: $60 - $80

        George Julian Zolnay (1863-1949) was a Hungarian and American sculptor called the "sculptor of the Confederacy". He became a favorite sculptor of Southerners in 1897 after he sculpted a statue of Sam Davis, a Confederate spy who was executed; as no pictures of Davis survived, Zolnay based the likeness on Davis' relatives. Zolnay's numerous creations, scattered throughout the South, earned him the sobriquet "Sculptor of the Confederacy." Among his most memorable works are memorials to Confederate President Jefferson Davis and his daughter Winnie, affectionately known as the "Daughter of the South." Signed 3-1/2 x 2-3/4 in. card. Excellent example.
