Works

Henryk Kuna (1879, 1945) was a Polish sculptor of Jewish origin, known for his elegant figurative works that blend classical influences with Art Nouveau and modernist sensibilities. He studied in Warsaw, Paris, and Rome, becoming one of the leading sculptors in interwar Poland, celebrated for his graceful depictions of the human form, particularly female figures and portrait busts. His work was widely exhibited and collected during his lifetime, though his legacy was tragically interrupted by the Holocaust, in which he perished.
