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. 

The price for a typical life-size statue of a specific person averages around $59,000.  It can go higher if there are a lot of props involved (military equipment, etc).  We also offer busts and more generic statues for less.  The price includes:

• Create design and coordinate for site specificity

• Enlarge portrait life-size in clay with life-like details.

• Make rubber molds for lost-wax-casting.

• Foundry costs to cast in bronze and finishing and patina.

• Shipping

• Coordination installation on site.

• Contractor’s liability insurance, labor, overhead, materials supplies. etc.

The Process

When you hire us to do your life-size portrait sculpture we make it easy.  We require 25% to start, 50% upon approval of the clay sculpture and the final 25% upon delivery. 

If the subject is alive it is nice to have new pictures from different angles.  However, many of our projects involve people who have passed away.  That's OK, but we will need as many photographs as you can provide to show different angles, expressions, etc. 

We will discuss with you how you want your subject portrayed and review pictures of the location where the sculpture will be located (site survey).  Then, we will do a drawing of what the completed sculpture will look like.  Upon approval, the artists will commence work.

The most difficult part of a portrait sculpture is the head and face.  We will do that first and upon completion we will send you digital images from several angels for your approval.  Upon approval, we will sculpt the body, clothing and other props.

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 getting a custom portrait sculpture made, please call us to talk more specifically about your project and we can give you a firm quote.  If budget is an issue you might like to consider a portrait bust or a more general sculpture that captures the sentiment and meaning of the memorial and use a bronze plaque to tell the story. 

Custom portrait sculpture is a specialty.  You won't find a higher quality anywhere.  Although $59,000 may seem like a lot of money; for the months of work and materials that go into a project like this it is really a bargain.

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!
