Charles Umlauf (American, 1911-1994) War Mother 1939, cast stone Although he did not serve in WWII, Umlauf has noted that War Mother was his response to the Nazi invasion of Poland in 1939. Lacking finances to pour bronze, the young sculptor poured a mixture of limestone aggregate and statuary cement into a mold. The accolades and criticism surrounding this work caught the attention of the University of Texas’s new art department who invited him to teach in 1941
