Carl Wilhelm Daniel Rohl-Smith (April 3, 1848- August 20, 1900) was a Danish American sculptor who was active in Europe and the United States from 1870 to 1900. He sculpted a number of life-size and small bronzes based on Greco-Roman mythological themes in Europe as well as a wide number of bas-reliefs, busts, funerary monuments, and statues throughout Denmark, the German Confederation, and Italy. Emigrating to the United States in 1886, he once more produced a number of sculptures for private citizens. His most noted American works were a statue of a soldier for a Battle of the Alamo memorial in Texas, a statue of Benjamin Franklin for the World's Columbian Exposition in 1893, a statue group in Chicago commemorating the Fort Dearborn Massacre, and the General William Tecumseh Sherman Monu

  • Carl Wilhelm Daniel Rohl-Smith, född 3 april 1848 i Roskilde, död 20 augusti 1900 i Köpenhamn, var en dansk-amerikansk skulptör, son till Caspar Wilhelm Smith. Carl Rohl-Smith studerade 1865-70 vid konstakademien i Köpenhamn, gjorde sig känd genom Brottande gossar (1871) och statyn Filoktetes (1873), fortsatte sina studier för Albert Wolff i Berlin 1875, utförde där statyn Ajax (1876, inköpt av staten, förstörd vid Christiansborgs brand), vistades därefter i Italien 1877-80, då statyerna Bellerofon och Demosthenes tillkom (den senare i Glyptoteket i Köpenhamn). Efter 1881 utförde Rohl-Smith fyra statyer för Marmorkyrkan. En grupp av lekande backanter (1885) såldes till Chicago, och dit överflyttade konstnären 1886. Han utförde där många och stora arbeten, statyer av Henry Montgomery i Memp (sv)
