Verdigris with Personality

Because Aino asked here is a bit of information about the statues beyond the names in the tags:From left to right: Friedrich Schiller is one oft the two national poets of Germany, like Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, he lived in the 2nd half of the 18th century. Großherzog Ludwig IV. was a local regent in Hessen in the 19th century. Jran-Baptiste Kléber was the most important general of Napoleon Bonaparte, hailing from the Alsace. The severed head is an allogorical figure from the works of Friedrich Rückert, another German author, same era as Goethe and Schiller. And Großherzog Ludewig I. was an ancestor to the other “Louis” in this collage. The names are mentioned in the tags.
