You only see what you know (Goethe)
One of the most peculiar architectural impressions outside the Bolzano Main Station is this lizard climbing a wall. Above the sporty creature, you see two elements similar to ancient herms. I love the idea to put a sculpture of a lizard as an add-on.
The winged cow of Graz seen on a balcony in the centre of the city. Don’t ask me for details, I am not an expert on winged cows đ
Near one of the entrances to the Mirabell Gardens (Mirabellgarten), I saw this sculpture of an unicorn. But this was not the only lively statue in this park of Salzburg City. So I also came across a sunbathing lion.
While walking through the Austrian sculpture park south of Graz, I saw this artwork. Though I assume it is already named, I wonder what title would be your choice?
Sculpture of a cat seen near Mirabell Palace (Schloss Mirabell) in Salzburg City. This palace was built by Archbishop Wolf Dietrich Raitenau in 1606 and was dedicated to his secret wife Salome Alt and their 15 children.
You find this peculiar detail at Schallaburg Castle (Schallaburg): A sculpture of a man showing his bottom. Such sculptures served as a defence against harm and evil spirits. Together with the Dog Lady, it is one of the most fascinating sculptures in this palace.
I’m not sure but I think this lion stuck its tongue out of me while I was taking a photo. The sculpture is one of two lions who guard the gate to the Swiss Court, the oldest part of the Hofburg Imperial Palace.
On my way back to the railway station of Bad Goisern I came across this sculpture in a small park. I don’t know the artist or the real meaning of that artwork but it seemed to be a piece of the “pre-planking’ period. đ
