The white sculpture on the left stands in the palace gardens of Schwetzingen Palace. The original was crafted from stone and originally painted annually with white lead pigment paste which made them stand out and protected them. In the 19th century the natural grey colour of the stone was preferred but the sculptures were eroded by the elements. Today the originals are under cover in a hall called Lapidarium (collection of stone sculptures), and the statues in the grounds are copies made of synthetic resin or cast bronze.

The withered stone replica is found about 15km to the north-east in the botanical garden in Weinheim, called Hermannshof. At the time when this sculpture was installed in the late 19th century it was the private garden of a local industrialist family.

It was pure coincidence that I realised that these three Bacchus children playing with a billygoat were identical and that I had photos that were taken from almost the exact angle.
