When David Spellerberg, President of Art of Bronze, answered the phone, he immediately knew he wasn’t speaking with the average customer. This gentleman wasn’t looking for just another sculpture—he was searching for a statement piece. His vision was to complete his spectacular ranch outside of Salt Lake City with one final, unforgettable work of art.

His choice was the monumental “End of the Trail,” inspired by the iconic sculpture by James Earle Fraser. Standing approximately 8½ feet tall and depicting the weary Native American warrior slumped over his horse, this legendary bronze sculpture has become one of the most recognized images in American Western art. It perfectly complemented the rugged beauty and expansive landscape of his ranch.

Transporting more than 1,200 pounds of bronze is no small task, but our customer was more than ready for the challenge. To simplify the logistics, Art of Bronze arranged to meet him halfway between our locations. There, we carefully transferred the sculpture from our delivery truck onto his trailer for the final journey home.

With the proper equipment already waiting at his ranch, he personally positioned this monumental bronze masterpiece in its permanent location. Watching such an ambitious vision become reality is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do.

At Art of Bronze, we don’t simply create bronze sculptures—we help our clients transform extraordinary properties into unforgettable destinations. Whether it’s a private ranch, luxury estate, corporate headquarters, or public space, a monumental bronze sculpture creates a lasting impression that will be admired for generations.

  • Patina / Coloring

    Art of Bronze is known for its exclusive and beautiful patinas. We specialize in creating traditional patinas of brown, burgundy, green (verde) or a brown & verde green combination. We are also experts in creating exotic colors. Let the Art of Bronze enhance the wonderful quality and detail of your new sculpture with our world-class patinas. No two patinas are exactly a like which will make your sculpture a unique treasure.

  • Maintenance

    Bronze lasts forever and will never rust, warp or contort. It is an alloy (a mixture of metals) and will oxidize over the years. This process will not hurt the statue. In fact, it can enhance the beauty by turning the statue many wonderful shades of greens, blues, whites and yellows. For the client that wants to maintain the original patina/coloring of their newly acquired work of art, Art of Bronze has several secrets. Every statue and placement will have different requirements and it is best to discuss your needs with Art of Bronze.
