11 inches high. Rare sculpture by E.M. VIQUESNEY depicts a WWI doughboy (soldier) carrying a grenade and a rifle (rifle is broke off) also a crack on the back right shoulder. Made of Bronze-finished spelter (pot metal alloy) highly collectible! This is an authentic miniature version of “The Spirit of the American Doughboy” by Ernest Moore Viquesney of Americus, Georgia. Viquesney’s Doughboy became the most iconic WWI memorial statue in America, with over 150 life-size versions installed nationwide in the 1920s and 1930s. This smaller commemorative casting was produced for collectors and veterans’ families during the same period and remains a highly sought-after piece of WWI militaria.
