This remarkable sculpture you can see it at the bronze fountain in front of the sala terrena.

The only sculpture from Wallenstein's garden collection, in 1648 stolen by Swedish army plundering Prague, was given back to Prague - it was just this beautiful statuary of Venus with Amor and a dolphin by Benedict Wurzelbauer from 1599. Original is placed in the Prague Castle Gallery and there is a replica.
