Upon his arrival in the United SUtes in 1898, he found that the
golden “land of opportunity" did not necesMrily exist for sculptor*
He spent several months wandering about New York before he finally
received a commission to make portrait boats of
aeveral New York notables. He went to Omaha
where he modeled all tho groups and other sculp
ture work for the government building at tho Oma
ha Exposition. Ho also prepared many of tho group*
for the Pan-American Export Exposition held in
Philadelphia in 1899. Upon hia return to New York,
he and Arthur Fendtl opened a studio. Though the
partnership soon dissolved, Coppini continued the
operation of the studio.
After a whirlwind courtship, Coppini married
the former Miss Elisabeth De Borbieri of New
Haven, Conn. She became a real helpmate and hia
sonatant aid and inapirstion. They moved to San
Antonio in 1910 and built tho now famous- Coppini
