Guided Story

Imagine being frozen in time, just like the boy standing in front of you. Look at the 'Standing Boy's' posture. Can you see the curiosity in his eyes? If you turn to your left, there's the Staudengarten, a perfect spot for a stroll this boy might have enjoyed. The sculptor, Christine Heitmann, designed the statue to capture not just innocence, but also the curiosity and adventure of a child. Behind you, nearby, is the Archer monument, providing a contrast to this peaceful boy. Both artworks tell stories of strength and gentleness. Perhaps the 'Standing Boy' inspires you to see the world through the eyes of a child.
