A very commendable work ethic for this talented couple Susanne. I have been to Ulm and remember the Gasthof Wilhelm, right opposite the Magirus Deutz factory. Nice work! Steve ;)

I like this type of art but like many other forms of art it always seems to be placed in areas where it contrasts with the natural settings. Greatest respects to the artist/s but the positioning is so wrong be it in a museum garden or wherever. Translation is ideal-Another piece of history introduced and learned-Thanks

Stunning clarity and bright rich colors in this pic of the stellar column and surroundings, Susanne. I thought at first it was in your parent's garden.

What a wonderful shot of a great piece of art! The sculpture actually reminds me of one of those minimalist paintings by Piet Mondrian (I only remember him because he was kinda cute!) And I love the way it works here. It's the perfect focus of your super image. Really nice work!
