Michael German 'Cavalry Blue' Soldier Sculpture

This is a detailed sculpture depicting a 19th-century American cavalry soldier, likely from the American Civil War or American Indian Wars period, given the uniform and accouterments. The sculpture appears to be made from a resin or composite material, meticulously hand-painted to capture realistic textures and colors. The soldier stands upright on a roughly textured, earth-toned base, suggesting a piece of ground. He is dressed in a dark blue military jacket with visible buttons, epaulets, and what appears to be ranking insignia or decorative trim on the sleeves, indicating a possible officer or non-commissioned officer. A prominent red or orange scarf is tied around his neck. His trousers are a lighter blue or grey, with yellowish patches on the inner thighs, common for riding breeches to prevent wear. He wears tall black boots and light brown or tan gloves, which appear to be sculpted to resemble leather. A belt with a visible buckle and a holstered weapon (possibly a pistol, though not clearly discernible) hangs at his hip. His face features a prominent mustache and a weathered, serious expression, topped by a wide-brimmed felt hat with a badge or insignia at the front. The craftsmanship is evident in the fine details of the uniform, facial features, and the texture of the materials depicted. A tag is visible, hanging from the sculpture, which reads 'Micha...' indicating the artist Michael German, and another word, possibly the title 'Cavalry Blue'. The sculpture appears to be in excellent condition with no visible damage, chips, or significant wear. The paint finish exhibits a matte quality, enhancing the period aesthetic.
