Papageno fountain
Hello folks,
If you like my work, don’t forget to rate and feel free to comment, your feedbacks are very important to me.
Here for you a fountain to beautify your plazas, old town squares, parks, market place or gardens … enjoy it.
It is Papageno, the fowler more talkative than a magpie and uncertain courage, who narrates the adventures of Prince Tamino of Mozart’s masterpiece, The Magic Flute (Die Zauberflöte). In this opera, the Queen of the Night persuades Prince Tamino to rescue her daughter Pamina from captivity. Separately, then together, Tamino and Pamina undergo severe trials of initiation, which end in triumph, with the Queen and her cohorts vanquished. The earthy Papageno, who accompanies Tamino on his quest, fails the trials completely but is rewarded anyway with the hand of his ideal female companion, Papagena.
This fountain is a tribute and it’s located in the Old Town of Salzburg, Austria, in a small square, Papagenoplatz, in Pfeiffergasse. The square didn’t exist until Allied bombing in WWII destroyed a number of houses that used to stand here and the decision was taken to create the square rather than rebuild them. This is one of a number of public artworks that celebrate Mozart and his music. It was made in 1960 by the Salzburg sculptor and artist Hilde Heger.
The statue is in bronze that i optimized. The bassin and the base are in stone and cobblestone that i reworked totaly to make it easy for the game.
