As an artist, Dave McGary has been at the center of the Western Art world for the past thirty years. As a sculptor with extraordinary talent, McGary’s career began at the age of 16 when he received a grant from Wyoming artist Harry Jackson to study bronze foundry techniques in Italy. During his two-and-a-half years in Italy, the young McGary learned the art of casting from the finest foundry workers in the world, craftsmen whose ancestors had cast the sculptures that grace some of Italy’s greatest cathedrals. 'There Are No Limits" was the motto that McGary hung in his studio later in his career, challenging him to sculpt without the concern for the casting process. His knowledge of bronze casting was second to none. This is a limited production #36 of 40 1988 by artist Dave McGary Titled "A King's Ransom". This wonderfully detailed piece is signed and numbered on the back of the bronze. It measures approx. 18.5" tall.
