Born on March 15, 1890 on the Hacienda de San Juan Bautista, in Durango, Mexico, Ignacio Asunsolo was interested in clay at an early age, since his mother was a ceramicist. He attended the Scientific and Literary Institute in Chihuahua, later becoming a professor at the National Institute of Fine Arts.
He studied in Europe on scholarship where he began creating monumental works in stone and bronze. He has sculpted many busts as well as full sized works. Today I am including a photo of the artist at work...
