Figurative Public Sculptur "Steinwerfer" im Stadtgarten von Karlsruhe.
Die aufrecht stehende Figur eines nackten, jungen Mannes, dessen Blick nach links gerichtet ist und der in der rechten Hand einen Stein hält, befindet sich am westlichen Ufer des Sees, nahe der Seebühne. Der Künstler verzichtet auf einen ins Detail gehenden Naturalismus zugunsten der Darstellung einer schutzlosen Figur im Zustand körperlicher Anspannung angesichts einer möglichen Bedrohung.
Kunstwerk von Konrad Taucher
Größe ca. 175/50/40 cm
Material Bronze
Jahr 1909

Figurative Public Sculpture "Steinwerfer" in the city garden of Karlsruhe.
The upright figure of a naked young man whose gaze is directed to the left and holds a stone in his right hand is on the western shore of the lake, near the floating stage. The artist dispenses with a detailed naturalism in favor of the representation of a defenseless figure in a state of physical tension in the face of a possible threat.
