Created by Fritz Schaper, this stunning sculpture pays homage to a literary giant of the 18th century. The illustration, taken from Illustrierte Zeitung on February 12,1881, captures the essence of Lessing's intellectual prowess and profound contributions to literature. Seated with an air of wisdom and contemplation, Lessing's portrait exudes a sense of deep thoughtfulness that characterized his work. As one of Germany's most influential writers during the Age of Enlightenment, he played a pivotal role in shaping German literature and theater.
