 | | His sculptures include fountains in Cleveland and Ann Arbor, portraits of John F. Kennedy, Lord Byron and Winston Churchill, works in major sculpture gardens in South Carolina and Grand Rapids, important public, "signature" sculptures in Stockholm and Detroit and a museum in Saginaw, Michigan devoted to his entire life’s work. |
 | | From then until his death in 1971, Schiwetz divided his time between a studio in Florence and studios in Bloomfield Hills and Dexter, Michigan, producing bronze sculptures of creatures and people, often with his trademark sense of whimsy. |
 | | Like his mentor, Carl Milles, he was frequently drawn to mythological subjects (Ulysses, unicorns, fauns, Neptune), but Schiwetz was also captivated by biblical themes (Jonah and the Whale, cupids, putti, St Francis and the Birds), and also literary subjects (Don Quixote, Pied Piper, Ichabod Crane). |
