About this work

Early in his career, Bartholomeus Eggers worked on the ornamental statuary of the town hall on Dam Square (today’s Royal Palace). Later, he received major commissions from Elector Frederick William of Brandenburg, so that some of his work went to palatial gardens in Germany and even Russia.
