Julius Bayerle

Julius Bayerle (2 June 1826[1] – 8 August 1873)[2] was a German sculptor and painter as well as a teacher at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf.

At the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven he found another opportunity for training with Karel Hendrik Geerts.

[5] At first he created a series of works with religious content, such as a crucifixion group for Wesel, Christ and the Apostles for Krefeld and a Madonna for Sigmaringen.

Bayerle's later works have a more profane, partly also decorative character; among them are statues and monumental sculptures for buildings.

Bayerle, Knight of the Order of the Crown (Prussia), died in Düsseldorf at the age of 47.
