Rudolf Pauschinger was born in 1882 in Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany. He was a sculptor, etcher, and medallist.
Pauschinger is primarily known for his animal sculptures. His works are typically made of bronze, often with a patina finish.
The style of his sculptures can be described as realistic or slightly stylized, with a clear Art Deco influence evident in some of his pieces, such as his depictions of lions or panthers.
He studied in Paris, Italy, and Spain, which undoubtedly influenced his artistic style and perspective. He was also a student of Rudolf Bosselt in Darmstadt.
