This is a fountain in Munich, the Spitzweg-Brunnen on the Stephansplatz. It was created by Konstantin Frick in 1979 and takes its name from the romantic artist Carl Spitzweg, whose tomb is in a cemetery close by. Apparently, he often painted fountains although I wonder if he would have painted this one.
I’ve had it in my archive for a while, I just didn’t know what to do with this odd blob. But lines it has.
Linked to Lines&Squares: #19 in October.

Thank goodness for #lines so we get to see this blob. It is rather odd!!

It is, isn’t it. And has in my opinion so little to do with Spitzweg. You’ve probably seen his most famous painting, titled “The poor poet” (German wikipedia, there is no entry in the English one: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Der_arme_Poet).

I share your opinion . . really doesn’t make any sense. I wonder if the sculptor was confused over the painter!

Whatever … it is neither a very attractive fountain nor can I see any connection to the artist mentioned. But hey! it’s art…
