This is a monument dedicated to the goldbeaters located at the intersection of 'Nördliche Ringstraße' and 'Ludwigstraße' in Schwabach, Germany, Bayern.
There's no plaque with details.
It was created by Andreas Teuchert in 1988.
First it was placed as a part of a fountain. But now the fountain is gone. But the sculpture is still there.
The life-sized sculpture is made of bronze. It shows a goldbeater at work.
It was a donation by the local bank 'Sparkasse Schwabach'.
