Reiterdenkmal Friedrich der Grosse

TIME : 2016/2/18 19:46:43

Seemingly surveying his domain, Frederick the Great cuts a commanding figure on horseback in this famous 1850 monument that kept sculptor Christian Daniel Rauch busy for a dozen years. The plinth is decorated with a parade of German military men, scientists, artists and thinkers.
