Finding the Right Sculptures for You

The history of sculpture as we know it is believed to have origins in Ancient Greece, while small sculptural carvings are among the most common examples of prehistoric art. In short, sculpture as a fine art has been with us forever. A powerful three-dimensional means of creative expression, sculpture has long been most frequently associated with religion — consider the limestone Great Sphinx in Giza, Egypt — while the tradition of collecting sculpture, which has also been traced back to Greece as well as to China, far precedes the emergence of museums.

Technique and materials in sculpture have changed over time. Stone sculpture, which essentially began as images carved into cave walls, is as old as human civilization itself. The majority of surviving sculpted works from ancient cultures are stone. Traditionally, this material and pottery as well as metalbronze in particular — were among the most common materials associated with this field of visual art. Artists have long sought new ways and materials in order to make sculptures and express their ideas. Material, after all, is the vehicle through which artists express themselves, or at least work out the problems knocking around in their heads. It also allows them to push the boundaries of form, subverting our expectations and upending convention. As an influential sculptor as much as he was a revolutionary painter and printmaker, Pablo Picasso worked with everything from wire to wood to bicycle seats.

If you are a lover of art and antiques or are thinking of bringing a work of sculpture into your home for the first time, there are several details to keep in mind. As with all other works of art, think about what you like. What speaks to you? Visit local galleries and museums. Take in works of public art and art fairs when you can and find out what kind of sculpture you like. When you’ve come to a decision about a specific work, try to find out all you can about the piece, and if you’re not buying from a sculptor directly, work with an art expert to confirm the work’s authenticity.

And when you bring your sculpture home, remember: No matter how big or small your new addition is, it will make a statement in your space. Large- and even medium-sized sculptures can be heavy, so hire some professional art handlers as necessary and find a good place in your home for your piece. Whether you’re installing a towering new figurative sculpture — a colorful character by KAWS or hyperreal work by Carole A. Feuerman, perhaps — or an abstract work by Won Lee, you’ll want the sculpture to be safe from being knocked over. (You’ll find that most sculptures should be displayed at eye level, while some large busts look best from below.)

On 1stDibs, find a broad range of exceptional sculptures for sale. Browse works by your favorite creator, style, period or other attribute.

Questions About Bronze Sculpture Wildlife
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Yes, bronze sculptures are indeed cast. The sculptures are made by pouring the molten metal into a cast or mold, and leaving it to set. On 1stDibs, you can find a collection of bronze sculptures from top sellers around the world.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023
    Many artists are famous for bronze sculptures. Some well-known works include L’Homme Au Doigt by Alberto Giacometti, The Thinker by Auguste Rodin, the Baldachin of San Pedro by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, the Bronco Buster by Frederic Remington and David by Donatello. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of bronze sculptures from some of the world's top galleries.
  • It means that the sculpture is made from bronze and not a resin
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022
    To tell if a bronze sculpture is real, start by scratching the dark coating on the metal called the patina. If the mark appears reddish-gold to yellow in color, you likely have an authentic bronze piece. Black or gray indicates a replica. When you strike a bronze statue, it should produce a ringing sound. A thud or knocking sound likely means the piece is another type of metal. Find a collection of expertly vetted bronze sculptures on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Bronze will begin to patina as it ages, and is a great way to check the age of a bronze piece. Bronze generally uses copper as an alloy, which captures an underlying and beautiful pink color. You can also have a professional determine the age of your bronze sculpture. Shop a collection of antique bronze sculptures from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023
    No one knows who produced the first bronze sculpture. The oldest known bronze statue, Dancing Girl, dates back to approximately 2500 BCE and was created in lost-wax casting by an unknown artist. It is said to have originated from the Indus Valley Civilization in what is now Pakistan. Shop a selection of bronze sculptures from some of the world’s top galleries on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Nataraja is the most famous of the Chola bronze sculptures. These pieces depict the god Shiva dancing joyfully. Shiva was the deity believed to protect the Chola dynasty. As a result, many artisans produced works depicting the god. Shop a range of bronze sculptures on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 9, 2024
    Yes, bronze sculptures may be worth something. The artist, age, size, subject matter and condition of sculptures all play a role in determining their value. Bronze pieces by well-known artists like Alberto Giacometti and Constantin Brâncuși have sold for millions in the past. If a sculpture doesn't have much value based on its artistic merit, historical importance or other characteristics, the bronze metal itself may have value as scrap metal. For a valuation of a particular piece, use the services of an experienced art dealer or certified appraiser. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of bronze sculptures.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    To make his bronze sculptures, Alberto Giacometti first created the form and shape with clay and plaster. He would often revise his model many times before producing the final mold for the bronze. You'll find a collection of Alberto Giacometti art on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 30, 2023
    The South Indian dynasty that was the most famous for bronze sculptures was the Chola dynasty, which lasted from the 300s BCE to 1279 CE. Artisans of the time produced sculptures for impressive temples like the Great Living Chola Temples in Tamil Nadu, which were constructed during the period. Find a range of bronze sculptures from some of the world’s top galleries on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
