Public art projects are a specialty of The
Large Art Company. Our artists are some of the finest
sculptors of our time. Click on the image above to
see more examples of past public art projects.
As you can see in the photographs here and
in our other custom sculpture sections, we can handle even the most challenging
situations. The detail and the quality just pour from these sculptures.
The Large Art Company is a fine art gallery in
Baltimore, Maryland that specializes in bronze sculpture and statuary. We
work with individuals, corporations, government agencies, schools, universities
and organizations all of types for our open edition pieces and custom bronze
sculptures. We are a registered US government contractor and we are happy
to bid on your projects.
Public art projects are not cheap. A
commission can run anywhere from $25,000 to several hundred thousand dollars
depending on the size and complexity. That said, where would we be if no
one invested in public art? Public art can literally transform
neighborhoods, revitalize business districts and increase property values.
More importantly they tell a story of our time, our place. All the public
art together tells the history of mankind. Artistic expression, people,
and events are all worthy of public art displays.
We understand that a public art commission is
not the solution for many budgets. That is why we offer more general
sculptures as open editions for a fraction of the cost. They may not be
exactly what you are looking for, but you can always add a plaque to send the
message or sentiment you wish to convey. Please feel free to browse the
categories to the right for a suitable sculpture. Also, if you don't find
what you need please call. We have access to many more statues than we
carry on our web site.

The Process
When you hire us to do your
public art project
we make it easy. We
usually begin with a design
project that can run between
$500 and $2,000 (can go
higher for very complex
projects). You may
have ideas or you may want
us to create a concept from
your description.
Either way we develop
sketches and drawings of the
final project and associated
cost.
Once we are in agreement,
the project can commence.
We
require 25% to start, 50%
upon approval of the clay
sculpture and the final 25%
upon delivery. We will
send you frequent
photographs of our progress
for your approval.
When the clay sculpture is
completed we will again send
you digital images for your
approval. If you would
like to visit you are more
than welcomed to do so.
Upon approval we will begin
the molding and casting
process.
We can provide installation
service for an additional
fee, but we are also happy
to coordinate installation
with a local company of your
choosing included in the
price of the completed
sculpture.
Ordering
If you are interested in
more details about a public
art project, please call us to talk
more specifically about your
project. With a little
information we can give you
a ballpark estimate for your
project. If
budget is an issue you might
like to consider a more general
sculpture that captures the
sentiment and meaning of the
project and use a bronze
plaque to tell the story.
Public Art is our specialty.
There is no guesswork that

FREE SHIPPING!
We want your shopping experience to be as pleasant as possible. Therefore we are offering FREE SHIPPING for a limited time anywhere in the lower 48 United States on any of our bronze statues or bronze sculptures. So relax, look around, and if you see something you like feel confident that the price you see is your final price. There are no additional shipping, handling, or insurance fees, and unless you are located in Maryland sales taxes do not apply.
We are proud to present one of the most impressive bronze sculpture and bronze statue collections in the United States. Each sculpture is hand crafted by some of the finest artists and bronze foundries in America. Many of the pieces are on display in our art gallery in Baltimore, Maryland.
Do not be fooled by low-quality, mass-produced, and foreign import bronze sculptures and statues on the market today. You may have seen some of our sculptures in other places because the molds are readily available. However, that is where the similarities end. All of our bronze sculptures are hand-made, one at a time, with the highest quality standards.
We carry over 100 open edition bronze sculptures and statues in a variety of styles including Western sculptors such as Frederic Remington and Charles Russell, classic sculptors such as Auguste Rodin, equestrian sculptors such as Mene’ and Barye, art deco sculptors such as Icart and Chiparus and wildlife sculptors such as Moigniez and Bonheur. If you are looking for something particular and don't see it on our site, feel free to call or drop us a note. There is a good chance we have it or can get it and our prices cannot be beat. If you can find the same quality bronze sculpture or statue at a better price we will match it!
