Hugo Lederer was a German sculptor and medallist. He lived and worked in Berlin during the reign of Kaiser Wilhelm II and the first German democracy. His most famous work is the monumental monument to Bismarck in Hamburg (1902-1906).
Hugo Lederer always stood on the side of upper-class modernism and opposed the anti-bourgeois left-wing or popular art scene. Initially he was still following Reinhold Begas and his neo-Baroque style, the Gründerzeit art movement favoured by Kaiser Wilhelm II and despised by many intellectuals of the time.
