Artur or Arthur Kaan followed his art studies at the Academy of Vienna, becoming a member of the Viennese Art Society in 1896. He lived and worked in Vienna till his death in 1940. He is best known as a portrait sculptor, of children and of memorial statues for Emperor Franz Joseph, the Mayor of Vienna Porzer, the composer A.M. Storch and for many others.
