From the beginning of life to the gateway to old age - a closer look at the sculptures on Untere Hauptallee

The beginning of life

The large bronze sphere with the silver figure of a child can be seen from afar; it stands at the beginning of the watercourse and symbolizes youth at the beginning of life. The realistically sculpted child sits gracefully on the sphere and gazes at the rippling water; it has one hand on its chest and the other behind its back. The sculpture is given a special charm by the fine rays of light from the inside of the sphere, which cannot be seen during the day, but only in the dark.

Was hält das Kind mit der linken Hand auf dem Rücken?

Asked by Gerti Schamlott

Annika Schmitmeier

Bad Pyrmont Tourismus

Hallo Gerti Schamlott, vielen Dank für Ihre Nachricht! Das Kind hält eine Statuette der Venus von Willendorf in der Hand. Sie gilt als eines der frühesten Kunstwerke der Menschheitsgeschichte. Das Original dieser Statuette wurde vor etwa 25000 Jahren geschaffen und gilt als Sinnbild der Fruchtbarkeit. Sie symbolisiert zusammen mit dem Kind den Ursprung des menschlichen Lebens, aber steht auch für den Urspung der bildenden Künste. Freundliche Grüße aus der Touristinformation!
