Bronzes & Statues
26-16 PRESENTATION BRONZE
- KAISER WILHELM II - UNIFORM - GROßADMIRAL - ADMIR
AL FREDERICK von INGENOHL.
Bronzes of Kaiser Wilhelm II are extremely popular with
collectors. These bronzes come in a variety of sizes and
different quality levels. Even modest households in Germany
usually displayed a small bronze of the Kaiser. At the other
extreme were the massive pieces commissioned by the Kaiser
himself. They were produced and given as gifts for special
services to the Kaiser and the Reich. These often ranged to
20" in height and exceeded 20+ lbs.! They were never
produced in great quantities. Most of them featured the
Kaiser wearing an army regimental uniform. One should
remember, however, that Wilhelm II was a Navy man at heart.
He really savored his role as Großadmiral in the Kaiserliche
Marine. As with ANY area of collecting,
we ALWAYS find that naval items are fewer in number. It does
not matter whether it is wound badges, qualification badges,
uniforms, or whatever; navy items are ALWAYS harder to find. Our featured
item brings this scarcity home with a resounding bang. As rare as are these
presentation bronzes of Wilhelm II, the number of them with a naval theme is
minuscule. We recently readjusted our focus in this area of merchandise.
Although we have offered busts of German royalty and military commanders for
years, now we are searching for rarer pieces. I do not use the term "museum piece"
or "museum quality" lightly. Applying either in
this case does not represent an overstatement. What we offer today is a massive,
beautifully constructed, special presentation bronze of
Kaiser Wilhelm II in the uniform of a Großadmiral. That
alone makes it a very rare piece. In addition, it was a
special presentation piece given by a grateful Kaiser to
Admiral Friederick von Ingenohl. Frederick von Ingenohl
(1857-1933) first joined the Imperial German Navy in 1874 at
the age of seventeen. He served in many commands, then
ultimately was appointed to command the High Seas Fleet in
1913. He was, in fact, its commander at the outbreak of WW I.
Although aggressive by nature, Ingenohl was never able to
fully implement his plans for his fleet. This was due in part
to a lack of support from the Kaiser himself, who did not
want to risk his fleet, and from interference by the German
Admiralty. Alfred von Tirpitz was one of his biggest
opponents. After a whispering campaign to the Kaiser, von
Ingenohl was replaced in February 1915. This bronze was presented to von
Ingenohl in
April 1914 on the occasion of his 40th
year of service in the Navy. This imposing bronze measures
some 20" in height and weighs more than twenty-two lbs.
The bronze has a marble base (dark green and white) and a
matching circular extension to which the waist-high likeness
of Kaiser Wilhelm II is attached. This stunningly beautiful
likeness shows the Kaiser in the full-dress uniform of a
Großadmiral. Wilhelm is wearing his fore and aft cap and
grasps a telescope in his right hand. Attached to the
circular marble extension is a dedication plaque, which
states "Meinem leiben Ingenohl 12
April 1914 Wilhelm." Topping this
beautifully patinaed plaque is a superb Hohenzollern Crown.
This massive bronze was the work of the noted sculptor, Otto
Rohloff. Rohloff’s signature appears on the reverse of
the bronze. I am so excited to present this naval-themed
bronze to you today. I hope that each of you will read this
description in detail and look closely at the attached
photographs. All of the items we offer have history attached
to some degree or another. This is a slice of history at its
best, as a king acknowledges the contributions of his loyal
subject in a most effuse and generous manner.

26-14 BRONZE
- HAND
- BATON - GENERALFELDMARSCHALL PAUL von HINDENBURG.
This exciting item represents the first of a new line we will
be offering at Der Rittmeister Militaria. While we have dealt
in the various forms of classic militaria for years, we now
want to explore Imperial German martial artwork in greater
depth. This will include bronzes, paintings, and other objets
d’art. Our first offering is a very
rare bronze representing the hand and marschall’s
baton of Generalfeldmarschall Paul von Hindenburg. Arguably,
von Hindenburg was the best-known and most respected, in
Germany, of its field commanders. When the war began in 1914,
he was retired. He was called back to service and given
command of German armies in the East. It was here that he was
first teamed with General Erich Ludendorff. Together they
achieved a wonderful victory at Tannenberg in Eastern
Prussia. This proved to be one of the greatest military
victories of WW I. In this battle an outnumbered German Army
outmaneuvered the Russians, then dealt them a crushing
defeat. For this victory, honors were heaped on von
Hindenburg, including the rank of Generalfeldmarschall. From
that point forward von Hindenburg and Ludendorff acted as one
during the rest of WW I. It is also while he commanded
the armies in the East that we are brought to the story
behind this historically important bronze we are offering.
Throughout the war, Kaiser Wilhelm II was much involved in
the military affairs of his armies. He fancied himself a
military strategist (much as did a certain Bavarian corporal
with HIS armies during WW II)! The Kaiser was constantly
involved in the smallest issues. It seems he felt that he
needed some army units from von Hindenburg’s command for
the West and arranged for their transfer. Von Hindenburg was
a strong willed man in his own right and protested this
vehemently. Wilhelm II turned a deaf ear to these
protestations. Von Hindenburg then dispatched a major from
his staff to Berlin. The major, at von Hindenburg’s
behest, went to Kaiser Wilhelm II’s wife, the Kaiserin
Auguste Victoria. As one might expect, this did not sit well
with the Kaiser! It was certainly a time when the
messenger was blamed for his message. The major was removed
from von Hindenburg’s staff. Although he may not have
spent the rest of the war peeling potatoes in the
hinterlands, he was sent somewhere much less important than
being on von Hindenburg’s staff! Again, if von
Hindenburg had been unhappy when his units were taken away
from him, he was even less pleased when his staffer was
transferred as well. Thus began a period of very cool
relations between von Hindenburg and the Kaiser. The Kaiserin
tried to patch things up between the two men. As a part of
that effort she commissioned the well-known sculptor
professor Stanislaus Cauer to make a bronze showing a hand
laid horizontally on a platform holding a
generalfeldmarschall’s baton. At some point in 1915 von
Hindenburg, in his own attempt to reconcile with his Kaiser,
commissioned a similar bronze. It had some differences. While
the first bronze showed the hand and baton in a horizontal
position, the von Hindenburg version was vertical. The one of
the copies of the latter is what we are offering to you. The arm serves as the base. The
generalfeldmarschall’s baton is clutched in the air by a
right hand with a wedding ring on the ring finger. The detail
to the baton is remarkable. It looks like the scale of the
hand and baton are just about correct for an actual hand and
baton. The sides of the baton are covered with alternating
rows of Hohenzollern Eagles and Crowns. On the underneath of
the arm is covered by the engraving of the presentation for
this piece. This particular example was the one presented to
von Hindenburg’s trusted deputy, Generalleutnant Erich
Ludendorff. The engraving reads as follows: "Meinem
Generalstabschef Gen. Lt. Ludendorff von Hindenburg 9 April
1915 Lötzen." As you will note
from the attached photos of the base, the signature of von
Hindenburg correctly recreates HIS
signature! Also on the base is the signature of the artist Professor
Stanislaus Cauer, who was the artist of
the first bronze. Cauer
was a premiere artist in Germany when it came to the design
and manufacture of bronzes for royalty and the military. This
information is contained in a recently released book on the
history of the batons of generalfeldmarschalls and
großadmirals. This book is "Mythos
Marschallstab der Marschallstab in der Preußischen und
Deutschen Geshichte von 1852 bis 1945" by
André Stirenberg, copyright 2004, H. M. Hauschild Gmbh,
Bremen. This interesting book follows the development and the
differences in the batons carried by generalfeldmarschalls
and großadmirals. The information, which will be shipped
with this bronze, appears on pages 124
and 125. The bronze stands 11 3/4" at its
tallest point. The section of arm to the knuckle of the index
hand is 9." The overall length of the
generalfeldmarschall’s baton is 12 1/4." It weighs
4 pounds, 14 ½ ounces. It is my understanding that three to
five of these were created. This example was acquired
indirectly from the widow of General Ludendorff. [As an
aside, and to show the importance and respect given to
Ludendorff both by von Hindenburg and Kaiser Wilhelm II, he
was awarded the Pour le Mérite and Pour le Mérite with Oak
Leaves. He was one of the six recipients, the lowest ranked,
of the 1914 Grand Cross of the Iron Cross]. This is an
amazing artifact. In addition to being historically
significant, it a beautiful piece of art. It highlights the
elegance of the high-end bronzes produced in Imperial
Germany. $9,495.00. .

STATUE - GERMAN AVIATOR.
This is a classic statue depicting a WW I
German aviator. I have seen these in the past, and offered them to you on
one or two occasions. The statue rests on a base that measures 3 3/4" x 3
3/4" x 3/4." The statue’s total height, from boot to upraised hand, measures
11 1/2." Its overall weight is 2 pounds, 11 ounces. The pilot is wearing
what appears to be a double-breasted, leather flying jacket. He is also
wearing high boots into which his trousers have been tucked. He sports an
old-fashioned leather helmet. This helmet was used early in the war by
pilots and observers alike. Its leather was hard-shelled, unlike the more
commonly seen soft leather caps. [If you look carefully, you can see a ridge
running down the helmet’s center. Its presence is how I identified the
helmet’s style.
Perched atop his helmet are his goggles. His right arm is raised in salute,
and his left hand holds a propeller. Obviously, the propeller is not to a
standard propeller’s scale, which would have been much taller. The entire
presentation, however, presents the WW I aviator’s spirit. If you look under
the base, you can see the twin bolts and nuts that secure the statue to its
base. At one time, the base probably had some sort of cover to conceal its
innards. It does not affect the statue’s ability to stand solidly and
securely when it is displayed. Here is a unique opportunity to add this
splendid piece to your statue or aviation collection. There is a portion of
the thumb on the right hand that is missing.

STATUETTE - KAISER FRIEDRICH III.
Friedrich III was Germany’s second Kaiser.
He lived a mere three months after he assumed his father Kaiser Wilhelm I’s
throne. Friedrich III was an able military commander who competently handled the
units under his command during the 1866 Austro-Prussian War and the 1870-1871
Franco-Prussian War. He proved himself to be a mature and evenhanded
administrator. Both of these virtues were NOT held by his son Wilhelm II. With
Friedrich III’s untimely death in 1888, one has to wonder what history would
have been like under his rule rather than Wilhelm II’s. It is, of course, one of
those "what if" situations. Personally, I doubt that WW I would have developed
under his rule. The statuette we are offering today is vividly painted in black, red, gold,
brown and gray. Friedrich III stands erect in his uniform, with one hand on his
sword’s hilt and the other grasping a document. He stands on a base that
measures 1/2" tall. The figure of Friedrich III stands 8 1/2" tall. The combined
height of the base and statuette is 9." The statuette’s back is flat, and
contains two cutout areas. They may have allowed the statue to be hung on a wall
or, at the very least, stand flat against one. Kaiser Friedrich III’s facial
features of are well done. It should also be remembered that statues of
Friedrich III are seen far less frequently than Kaiser Wilhelm I, Kaiser
Wilhelm II, or King Frederick the Great for that matter.

XJB LARGE BRONZE STATUE - SOLDIER IN GRENADIER-REGIMENT Nr 11 - PRUSSIA.
This is
a consignment item. It is certainly the largest and most impressive
statue we have ever offered. It represents a soldier from
Grenadier-Regiment König Friedrich III (2.
Schlesisches) Nr 11. The regiment was founded in 1808. It was garrisoned
at Breslau (in present-day Poland. It also was Manfred von Richthofen’s homestead). The regiment, which had fought bravely
in the Napoleonic Wars, was attached to the VI. ArmeeKorps. The massive
statue stands 44" in overall height! Its marble base measures 9" x 91/4" x 1
1/4." A secondary bronze base is attached to the marble base, measuring 8" x
8" x 1 3/4." The soldier’s actual height is 27," which, added to the rest,
gives us the final figure of 44 inches. I believe you will agree, a statue
standing three feet and eight inches in height is very impressive! (We seldom
have offered any statues much more than 18" in height). The soldier grips his
rifle firmly in his right hand. From rifle butt to bayonet tip, it measures a
striking 26 inches. Perhaps the statue’s most impressive statistic is
its weight. Our steadfast soldier clocks in at a whopping 61.6
pounds!
The sculptor has signed his name as W. Uhlmann. I have not been able to
find information about this name. [I have found information on a German
sculptor named Hans Uhlmann (1900-1975). I do not know if they are
related or not]. As you can see from the attached photographs, the detail work
on the soldier and his equipment is amazingly lifelike. It is almost as if a
soldier was miniaturized and frozen in time.
Ultimately, it is one of those items where it is better to show you its
pictures, let you enjoy them, and stop prattling on!
[Naturally, special shipping charges will
be involved in sending this HEAVY piece to you! Charges will be based on your
location and the type of shipping you prefer].

STATUE - GERMANIA - GERMANY’S PROTECTOR.
Germania was the mythical
protector of Germany. A large statue of her was erected on the Rhine and there
she looked to the West where she stood ever vigilant to warn and protect
Germany from an invasion from France. Today we offer an oversized statue of
Germania which stands 16" tall overall. Germania herself measures 14" tall and
she is mounted on a golden base which measures 2". The statue is made from
stamped steel which weighs 8 lbs. and 1.5 ounces. It is painted in both silver
and gold. She holds the Hohenzollern crown uplifted in her right hand. In her
left hand she holds a sword ready to do battle with any enemies who attack
Germany. On either side of her you can see a an Eagle lending her support. On
the reverse you can see that the statue is made of stamped steel. This is a
very striking statue and will add a great deal to any room where it is placed
and then Germania will look out for you!

26-27 XJB STATUE OF A RAMPANT LION - BAVARIA.
This is a consignment item. It is an oversized statue of a rampant Lion of
Bavaria. It is made of base metal which has a coating of gilt over it. The
Lion stands 10 1/2" tall from its base to the tip of its mane. The Lion is mounted
on a wooden base which is a further 2 1/4" tall so the overall height of this
presentation is 13". The Lion is attached firmly to the base. The consignor
tells me that this piece was used as a finial at a castle and displays the
might and bravery of Bavaria. It weighs a whopping 9 ½ lbs. and is very well
made with excellent detail. Due to the weight
and the size additional shipping may be required depending on to where it will
be shipped.

26-44 GLASS STATUE - KAISER JOSEF II - AUSTRIA.
This is a translucent glass statue of Austria’s Kaiser Josef II (1741-1790).
He was the Holy Roman Emperor from 1765 to his death in 1790. He also ruled
the Hapsburg lands from 1780 to 1790. He was a proponent of enlightened
absolutism. He was considered one of the Enlightenment’s greatest despots,
along with Prussia’s König Frederick the Great and Russia’s Catherine II
(a.k.a. the Great). His attempted modernization reforms aroused
significant opposition, which eventually led to their failure to become
fully enacted. The statue is considered is made of pressed glass and stands
7 1/2" tall. Its base identifies him as "Josef II." It is in very fine
condition.

26-45 PORCELAIN FIGURINE - SOLDIER AIDING WOUNDED COMRADE.
This is an
enchanting white bisque porcelain figurine of a soldier sharing his canteen
with a wounded comrade. The figurine is realistic. It is easy to see the
caregiver’s compassion for his wounded comrade. The figure measures 5
1/4" x 4 1/4"
x 2." A serial number, 3283, appears on the reverse. It is in very
fine condition.

26-40 SCHLESSISCHER SCHÜTZE STATUE.
This is a fine porcelain statue of a Schlessischer Schütze. The man
was a member of an elite Schützen unit during the Napoleonic Wars,
circa 1810. The figure is mounted on a white porcelain base, which measures
2 1/2" x 2 1/2" x 1/2." The man is wearing a black shako and a green tunic
with what appear to be light-blue or gray trousers and black boots. He
appears to be leaning against a tree stump. He measures 9 1/4" in height
from his shako’s plume to the tip of his boots. The item’s condition is
excellent. I cannot say when it was manufactured. At the item’s base are the
description and date of the soldier, as we have noted in our title.

XJB LINEOL FIGURINE - GENERALFELDMARSCHALL AUGUST von MACKENSEN.
This is a consignment item. The German firm that produced Lineol
figurines was founded in1906. These figurines were produced from a
combination of linseed oil and tree resin (hence the name, Lineol).
They were then hand painted. They produced a wide assortment of items. Their
WW I and Third Reich items are quite popular among modern collectors. Today
we are offering a figurine of Generalfeldmarschall August von Mackensen. He
was among the most able of Germany’s WW I field commanders. He served on
both the Eastern and Western Fronts and commanded an Armeegruppe. He
was also Kaiser Wilhelm II’s particular favorite,
often kissing his hand. When he attended his Kaiser’s 1941 funeral at Haus Doorn, he left his overcoat on the casket.
Von Mackensen was an arch-Prussian and cut an imposing figure. He was a
member of 1. Leib-Husaren-Regiment Nr 1. Photos of von
Mackensen wearing the regiment’s black attila with the Totenkopf
wappen on his busby depict a forbidding figure. His large
mustache and stern visage added to that impression.
For the figurine, he is portrayed just as in the referenced photographs. In
his right hand he is holding a generalfeldmarschall’s baton. The figurine is
structurally sound, although small areas exhibit paint loss, which clearly
demonstrates its age. The figurine’s overall height is 3." It is very
handsome. From what I’ve been told, this particular example is quite scarce.

Busts
26-42 BUST - KAISER WILHELM II. This is a most unusual and beautiful
bust of Kaiser Wilhelm II. It is a clas
sic bust of Germany’s final Kaiser.
The bust is made of tiger’s eye, a semiprecious gemstone. [Tiger’s
eye is a quartz variety that displays rich yellow and golden-brown
stripes, with a fine golden luster when polished. It displays chatoyancy
(a vertical luminescent band like that of a cat's eye). Tiger’s eye
commonly is used for jewelry and small statues ]. It has been
delicately carved into Kaiser Wilhelm II’s likeness from the chest up. Its
luminescent golden bands run vertically through the bust, particularly
through Wilhelm’s face down into where his chest broadens out. The exquisite
carving is precise enough to reveal the Kaiser’s neck order, tunic buttons,
medal bar (at least 7 places), epaulettes and aiguillette. The
hairs on his mustache and head are individually rendered.
The statuette’s overall height is 6." The bust portion measures 2 1/4,"
while its base measures 3 3/4." The base appears to be made of either
agate or onyx, which are other quartz-forms related to tiger’s
eye. [Agate is a variety of chalcedony formed from layers of
quartz that usually show varicolored bands. Onyx is a gemstone with
alternating light and dark bands, which are colored in brown, red, black,
white and grey. Some forms of agate are called onyx, which is,
strictly speaking, coarsely banded agate. The agate-working industry
grew up centuries ago in the Idar-Oberstein district of Germany, where
agates were abundant around Oberstein on the Nahe, a tributary of the
Rhine at Bingen. Most were found in the Galgenberg, or Steinkaulenberg,
overlooking the village of Idar, on the Idar Bach, about two miles from
Oberstein. Commercial mining mostly halted in 1870, although the agate
industry is still carried on, especially at Idar]. The onyx/agate
base’s color shifts from light brown to dark brown, with thin swirling lines
of white and providing interesting contrast. It has been carved in the form
of a tiered tower, with the tiger’s eye bust attached to its top.
This is a sublime piece of work, splendid in its execution and bewitching in
its beauty. Gem afficionados and royalty collectors alike will glory in its
sensuous charm. $1,195.00

BUST - “IRON CHANCELLOR” OTTO von BISMARCK.
This is a multicolored bust of
Germany’s greatest politician, Otto von Bismarck. Bismarck was Chancellor under
three Kaisers: Wilhelm I, Friedrich III, and Wilhelm II. He was involved in the
unification of Germany under Wilhelm I, and his crowning as Emperor after the
1870-1871 Franco-Prussian War. The bust stands 7 1/2” tall and 4 3/4” wide. It
is made of bisque porcelain. It is completely painted, including his face, hair,
shirt, coat, and hat. It is very well made and lifelike.

Figurines
26-13 PORCELAIN FIGURE OF
A HUSSAR. This is an exquisite
porcelain figure of a Hussar. He stands 7 3/4" tall. The
man is wearing a 19th
Century dress uniform, complete with sword, busby, atilla,
etc. He even has a cape and bedroll slung over his shoulder.
The only small flaw in this delightful item is that
two-thirds of his sword is missing below the hilt. Otherwise,
this is a lovely piece in excellent condition. It is a bargain
at this price. $125.00 . . .

18-169 VASE WITH A
SOLDIER ON IT. This is a small vase
that would be suitable for holding a bud or other small
flower. The flower holder looks like a guard house or door
and stands 4". A soldier wearing a pickelhaube and
holding his Mauser
stands against it. It is in charming condition. $100.00

18-109 PORCELAIN
PATRIOTIC FIGURINE. This is a small
hand painted patriotic porcelain figurine that celebrated the
second year of WW I. This figurine stands 2 3/4" tall
and is 2 ½’ wide. It consists of two columns with
eagles mounted on them. Between the two columns is a wreath
with an Iron Cross in the center. This entire arrangement is
mounted on a base that bears the date of 1915.
The reverse of this base has the number 7925.
The basic color of this small figurine is white. There are
gold highlights on the columns. The eagles are mostly gold.
The wreath is both gold and white. The Iron Cross is black.
There is a ribbon looped from it to the wreath above. This is
all hand painted. The figurine has no chipping or cracks to
it. $175.00.

26-29 PORCELAIN
FIGURINE - PRUSSIAN OFFICER CA. 1740. This is
a finely-made porcelain figurine of a Prussian officer, circa 1740. This is
from the time when Frederick the Great (1712-1786) was King of Prussia.
Frederick the Great served as Prussia’s King from 1740 into 1786. This is
considered the beginning of Prussia’s dominance within Germany, which extend
from 1740 through 1918. The exquisitely-detailed figurine is hand painted.
It rests on an oval-shaped base. The figurine stands 8 1/4" tall. Adding the
base increases the total height to 9 1/2." The lower one third of the officer’s
sword is missing. Hallmarking for the manufacturer appears at the bottom,
but I am not familiar with it. [If any of our sharp-eyed readers can help us
ID the firm, we would greatly appreciate it]! I estimate that the figurine
was manufactured after 1945. The colors are very vibrant. This is an
extremely handsome figurine.

26-30 PORCELAIN
FIGURINE - 18TH CENTURY OFFICER - GOEBEL.
This is a fine, hand painted figurine of an 18th Century officer.
It is complete, undamaged and in pristine condition. It is marked for
Goebel in W. Germany. It probably was produced in the 1970's or 1980's,
before Germany’s reunification. The figure stands 7 3/4" tall.

18-215 BIG BERTHA
PATRIOTIC FIGURINE OR BUD
VASE. This is an unusual patriotic
figurine that could have been displayed alone or possibly
even used as a bud vase. It is made of porcelain and
represents the huge, powerful cannon "Big Bertha."
While the Germans had larger cannons in their arsenal, Big
Bertha really captured the public’s imagination. I
believe the gun received its name from the head of Krupp
Werke naming it for a daughter or
granddaughter. The figurine measures 6 3/8" in height.
It shows the gun at an angle of 45 degrees, ready to fire. On
the barrel in gold is noted "Die
Dicke Bertha aus Essen Hasweitte 42". Attractively
made and in very fine condition, it would make a most unusual
addition to any collection. $175.00
