Who Is Milton Elting Hebald?
Milton Hebald was born in New York and is a famous sculptor who specializes in figurative bronze works. The style of his works is contemporary Baroque, often in the state of still, dancing, or hugging, using rotating clothes or veils to surround the nudes of men and women. Twenty-three of his works are on public display in New York City, including statues of Romeo and Juliet bronze statue and the statue of Tempest.
Sculptor Milton Hebald meticulously crafted these bronze statues, which stand atop unassuming granite bases outside the Delacorte Theater. Additionally, a cast from the same mold graces the rose garden at Hollenbeck Palms Retirement Community in Boyle Heights, Los Angeles, serving as a poignant reminder of love’s enduring legacy. The Central Park rendition, cast in 1978, continues to captivate audiences with its timeless tale of romance and tragedy.
