Description: Fraser was a Dakota boy and familiar with Indians and Buffalo bones, at 18. Fraser went to the art Institute of Chicago for drawing classes and was a pupil of the Richard Bock for sculpture. At 20 he entered the Ecole des Breaux-Arts in Paris under Falguiere, the Julian Academy and Clarissa. At 22 years old, he became assistant to the major sculpture Augustus Saint Gaudens remaining until 1902 when Fraser opened his own studio in New York City. His first important commission was a bust of Theodore Roosevelt now in the capital building. Fraser also designed the five cent buffalo nickel issued in 1913 with a bison on the other side and the chief iron tail on the face. The end of the trail was his most popular work and still popular today. This is a rare opportunity to purchase an original Bronze. This will be carefully wrapped and packed in a wood crate for shipment. Buyer pays shipping and insurance.
