-THE BORACAY ISLAND LIFE-

Born on this day... Carl Milles 23 June 1875 in Lagga, Sweden – 19 September 1955) was a Swedish sculptor.

He studied under Auguste Rodin in Paris and would later come to Cranbrook Art Academy in Michigan. In 1931, American publisher George Gough Booth brought Milles to Cranbrook Educational Community, in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, to serve as his sculptor in residence.

Part of Booth's arrangement with his principal artists was that they were expected to create major commissions outside the Cranbrook environment. Milles and his wife returned to Sweden in 1951, and lived in Millesgården every summer until Milles' death in 1955.
