Robert Merrell Gage (1892 - 1981) "The Scout" Bronze Sculpture. Sculptor Robert Merrell Gage, also known as Merrell Gage, was born in Topeka, Kansas in 1892. He studied at the Art Students League in 1911 and at the Robert Henri School of Art and also served as an apprentice to Gutzon Borglum from 1914 to 1916 and again from 1921 to 1923. Borglum was a tremendous influence on Gage. Gutzom Borglum, the man who carved the famous figures on Mount Rushmore, called Robert Merrell Gage "that steady-eyed young sculptor." An alumni of the most sophisticated art schools, Robert Merrell Gage turned for subject matter to the basics of American history, the stories of the western struggle, and the lives of heroes of the American soul. The winner of many awards and honors, Gage left behind a large and excellent body of work, and some have called him, “the American sculptor.” Artist: Robert Merrell Gage Title: "The Scout" Medium: Bronze Signature Type: Signed Signature Location: Near Base Keywords: Native American, Indian Artwork, Art, Bronze, Carved, Carving, Sculpture, Statue, ArtSculpture; Ref: BD1175
