Frederick Schweigardt Archive
Frederick W. Schweigardt (1885–1948) was a student of the Stuttgart and Munich art academies in Germany, and studied with Auguste Rodin in Paris, where he received first prize at the Paris Exposition of 1913.
Schweigardt was named the “official sculptor for the exposition,” much to the surprise of San Diego’s local sculptors. Schweigardt maintained a studio in Balboa Park, where he made busts of Franklin D. Roosevelt, Will Rogers, and Albert Einstein. … adapted from livingnewdeal.org
