Vlad Tepes Limited edition

It is a great privilege to release a project sculpted by the Grand Master Mike Blank

Vlad III, commonly known as Vlad the Impaler or Vlad Dracula, was Voivode of Wallachia three times between 1448 and his death in 1476/77. He is often considered one of the most important rulers in Wallachian history and a national hero of Romania.

Books describing Vlad's cruel acts were among the first bestsellers in the German-speaking territories. In Russia, popular stories suggested that Vlad was able to strengthen his central government only through applying brutal punishments, and a similar view was adopted by most Romanian historians in the 19th century.

Vlad's patronymic inspired the name of Bram Stoker's literary vampire, Count Dracula.
