Ney's studio with the plaster masters of Stephen Austin and Sam Houston. The final marble sculptures are in the rotunda at the State of Texas Capitol.

Before fleeing for Texas, Ney sculptured many of Europe's greatest leaders. Shown above are Garibaldi the unifier of modern Italy and Bismarck who did the same for Germany.
