Edmund Moeller

Edmund Moeller , German sculptor of the first half of the twentieth century, he studied in Dresden and Dsseldorf, was awardwinning art from its beginnings, it is one of those rare artists whose original work was able to win the praise of success. In few works, as in the vast work of Moeller, so diaphanous is the process of artistic evolution, the inquisitions, the hesitations, the affectations, the profound influences.
