About this work

This photo shows six small plaster busts of soldiers’ heads. Each wears a tall hat with feathers or a plume. The busts are arranged in two rows of three, with a dark background behind them. Some faces look forward, others tilt slightly. A label in the top center reads *"Serie 8 1. Preis."* The word *"Preis"* means "prize" in German, so these might be award-winning designs. The artist likely made them as study models or competition entries. Next, look up Hejda, Wilhelm to see more of his work.
