Brno - W. A. Mozart Sculpture

Since 2008, the Vegetable Market has been adorned with another sculpture: on a pillar measuring several meters in front of the Reduta theater (where Mozart performed as a child) there stands a bronze clavichord (a kind of forerunner of the piano) upon which teeters a childish figure with the male head of the brilliant composer. The figure has one wing on his back, symbolizing the composer's sad fate. The statue is the creation of sculptor Kurt Gebauer.
