This bronze larger-than-life-sized figure depicts Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875), Danish poet, novelist, and author of fairy tales including The Ugly Duckling and The Little Mermaid. Sculptor Georg John Lober (1892-1961), who also created the statue of George M. Cohan (1958) in Duffy Square, shows the writer seated on a bench appearing to be reading his semi-autobiographical Ugly Duckling story to a rather attentive 2-foot-high bronze "duckling."
We have professional bronze sculptors who have paid attention to make statues when they were younger, they have rich experience in making this bronze Andersen statue. If you are interested in the Hans Christian Andersen statue please feel free to contact us.
