Biographical History
Born in a suburb of Vienna, Austria, Karl Bitter was trained as a sculptor at the Imperial Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, from 1885 to 1888. After active service in the Army, Bitter immigrated to the United States, arriving in New York City in November of 1889. Within weeks of his arrival, Bitter was engaged by the American architect, Richard Morris Hunt (1825-1895). He worked on projects for the Astors and Vandberbilts in New York City and at the Biltmore Estate, for William H. Vanderbilt, Ashville, NC, 1893-95. Bitter's work soon expanded beyond the domestic to include major civic works at the Columbian Exposition in Chicago, 1891 under Hunt, the Pennsylvania Railroad's Broad Street Station, Philadelphia, 1892-95, by Architect, Frank Furness (1839-1912), and the Wisconsin State Capitol, 1910-12 by George Post (1837-1913).
