EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the majestic Goethe Schiller monument in front of the national theatre at Weimar, Germany in 1950. The statue, created by renowned sculptor Ernst Friedrich August Rietschel, stands as a powerful tribute to two literary giants - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and Friedrich Schiller. The image transports us back to the mid-20th century, a time when art and culture flourished amidst post-war reconstruction. The monument's grandeur is enhanced by its surroundings; the elegant architecture of the national theatre serves as a fitting backdrop for these iconic figures. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness not only an appreciation for great literature but also a celebration of masculinity and artistic expression. The presence of men surrounding the statue evokes a sense of reverence towards these esteemed poets who have left an indelible mark on German literature. Erich Andres' masterful composition highlights both the strength and vulnerability inherent in sculpture. Through his lens, he captures every intricate detail with precision, allowing viewers to appreciate Rietschel's skillful craftsmanship. This print is more than just an artwork; it represents history unfolding before our eyes. It invites us to reflect upon the enduring legacy of these poets while immersing ourselves in their world through visual storytelling.
