Juan Nepomuceno Seguin, a patriotic Hero of Texas Independence." This sculptured Bust is exclusively available from Seguin Descendants Historical Preservation (S.D.H.P). This is a very special project for the Organization. Your purchase of this work of art will assist the "Seguin Descendants Historical Preservation" in the promotion of Col. Juan N. Seguin’s patriotic Legacy, and his predominant role in acquiring Freedom and Independence for Texas in 1836 for all Tejanos / Texans past and present. Help us preserve Texas History, and fund many of the Organization's Projects. Funds are raised for charitable and educational purposes, including the Senator Juan N. Seguin Scholarship Fund for students studying Hispanic/Tejano history and historical preservation. Support this Cause to help Students of Texas History further their Education.
The Hydra' Stone Bust Sculptor Ed Hankey has created an authentically detailed bust to replicate the Likeness of "Col. Juan Nepomuceno Seguin." From its conception, the sculptor has meticulously handworked this very unique piece of art. The Bust is 9 1/2 inches high, weighing 4 pounds. The artist has made each with a very unique flair about it, which will brighten up any area.
About the Artist
Ed Hankey has created a Magnificent sculptured Bust that will grace your home or office and/or as a gift to those special to you. Mr. Hankey is a sculptor whose heart and soul guide his work in porcelain, bronze and terra cotta. With an eye for detail and proportion, he infuses the essence of life into his sclptures. Whether he is sculpting the delicate Pointe shoes of a contemplative ballerina or the soft muzzle of a Labrador puppy, he works with an intensity that belies his twinkling blue eyes and easy smile. Ed has been commissioned by a group of Korean War Veterans who recognized his insight. Ed will create a fitting memorial for those killed or Missing in Action in the Korean War. With painstaking precision, he created a bronze eagle that is about to take flight grasping a fallen soldier's helmet and dog tags in its talons. This sculpture symbolizes the price Americans have paid for freedom around the world, the price being American lives, represented by helmets and dog tags, lost in the name of freedom. The Eagle perches, atop a granite obelisk that rises in the center of a five-point star granite monument on the ground of the State Capitol in Austin, Texas
This project has been in the works for about 6 months. It instantly took on a life of it's own from the first visit with the Artist who showed his eye for detail right from the start. We have found that we are all excited about adding the Bust to our Fund-raising efforts. This will be a true tribute to our Ancestor and his History.
