Rose Koller

Rose Koller was an Austrian sculptor.
Koller worked for the Natural History Museum in Vienna starting in 1933. In 1936, the Smithsonian's Anthropological Department commissioned a series of "family portrait-sculptures of ancient Austrians." Koller worked with a sculptor team. They used prehistoric skulls to model scientifically accurate heads for exhibition in an early example of forensic facial reconstruction.
Koller published a paper in 1935, Ein Beitrag zur Schädelkunde der Juden, which was a craniologic study of the Jewish population of Constantinople. She joined the NSDAP in 1938.
Koller worked for the Natural History Museum where she created a historical bust of St. Leopold which was exhibited at the 500th anniversary of his canonization.
