Historically important bronze sculpture.  Signed, dated 1924, and with the city of Tabor inscribed, also baring the foundry marks for Franta Anyz. This sculpture commemorates the Sokol athletic meeting of 1924 in the city of Tabor, Dusek's home town and where he built his studio in 1922.  Sokol is the Czech word for Falcon, thus the present bronze showing an athlete about to soar from the top step of a podium. Dusek, the cities favourite son, created this sculpture for the event. Sokol played an important part in the development of Czech Nationalism providing a forum for the spread of mass-based nationalist ideologies and was founded in 1862. The Sokol movement consciously traced its roots in physical education to the athletes and warriors of ancient Greece.
