Also known for his small-scale sculptures, the artist often depicted Baroque-era women dressed in opulent clothing. For example, in his pieceDamenbste(18371900) the artist sculpted a women dressed in an extravagant headpiece and a silken gown. Born on March 1, 1837 in Oschatz in the Kingdom of Saxony, Wahliss began his pottery career as the traveling salesman for a porcelain factory at age 30. He later left to found his own ceramics company, and soon began exporting porcelain goods across Europe. To meet the high demand for his pottery and sculptures, the artist opened his own department store, Wahliss, in Viennas city center. Near the end of his career, he abandoned his design work to move to the rural town of Velden, where he opened a luxury hotel. Wahliss died on July 18, 1900 in Vienna, Austria.
