Amazone vor dem Alten Museum

 Germany > Berlin

---

The width, 21-stage open staircase to the pillared hall of the old museum flank two bronze groups on plinths: from the lust garden on the right (east) a Amazon, created by August Kiß in 1837-42 in the fight with a tiger. The very lively bronze plastic is considered the main work of the smoke student. She represents the fighter as courageous and the extreme resistance. The pounding and packed with the claws of the predator reared up for the last time. The leadership of the spear allows a strong and well -targeted spear stitch that will save the Amazon's life.
