Moravský zemský dům v Brně. Bozzetto. Socha 3, 1878

The viennese sculptor josef schönfeld carried out the rich sculptural decoration of the attics of the southern and northern central rizalit. He is the author of six allegories on the facade of the building of the former moravian regional assembly from joštova street. Allegorical female statues represent: poetry, peace, legislation, prosperity (happiness), patriotism, science. They are made from very fine-grained soft eggenburg limestone without any other additives (chemically, it is pure lime). The stone is very suitable for sculptural processing, but its use outdoors is problematic, as weathering and disintegration of the rock occur in a very short time. According to the previous page, brno artist josef tomola completed the decoration on the facade of today's žerotín square. Https://www. Usoud. Cz/rekonstrukce-sidla https://www. Usoud. Cz/galerie.
