Lang Neil (3) Eugen Sandow was a Victorian strongman and showman who holds a special place in history as the pioneering father of bodybuilding & physical education. Eugen Sandow was born on 2nd April 1867 in Koenigsburg, East Prussia, Germany. His real name was Frederick Mueller and his father was a prosperous jeweller. His interest in physique was inspired by a visit to Rome during which he admired the fine statuary in the city. He excelled at track & field events and gymnastics at school. His parents sent him to medical school but upon discovering that their son was only concentrating on the study of anatomy with the intention of becoming a physical fitness trainer, they withdrew their financial support. Consequently, the young man was forced to earn a living as a professional wrestler and as an artist's model. Through his successes Sandow began to disseminate his teachings & techniques through a newspaper column which added further to his fame. In 1893 Sandow brought his show to the USA where it received a sensational response at the Casino in New York City, Boston's Tremont Theatre and the Trocadero in Chicago. At the latter venue the impresario Florenz Ziegfeld (later to become famous for the Ziegfeld Follies) became his manager and Sandow's nightly fee increased to as much as $3500 on occasions. Ziegfeld also managed to secure a number of lucrative advertisement and endorsement contracts. Indeed, Sandow's name became in demand for products as diverse as tonics & health food to bicycles and cigars. Now world famous and a household name, Sandow ran an extensive mail order business from his London headquarters and served as a personal trainer to the royal family. He collaborated on many books and published a magazine entitled Sandow's Magazine of Physical Culture. Sandow died as the result of an automobile accident on October 16 1924, but left a legacy that would evolve through the likes of the Mr Universe contest and personalities such as Charles Atlas and Arnold Schwarzenegger. He is buried in Putney Vale Cemetery The present sculpture was presented by Eugen Sandow to C. Lang Neil who was his Advertising Manager on 1st January 1911. It is understood to be one of seven of these large statues commissioned by Sandow and given by him to a selection of individuals who helped further his career. The statue is sold with a black & white studio portrait photograph of C. Lang Neil which is signed and dedicated to his mother in 1929. PROVENANCE: C. Lang Neil, donee of the statue. Thence by family descent to the present vendor.
