Wilhelm Jäger: Panpipes Player (faun)

• bronze
• 1929
• height: 36 cm

The Neubrandenburg sculptor Wilhelm Jäger (1888-1979) created this group of figures in the New Objectivity style. Two boys, sitting and standing, are listening to a man playing the panpipes. All three of the figures have the form of a faun: horns, tail and hooves. Many public works of art were created by Jäger, including the Fritz Reuter well on the market square from 1923 (today: “Mudder-Schulten well” opposite the train station).
