Fairy princesses are expected to be young and beautiful. Well, this one isn't. The statue by sculptress Karin Bohrmann-Roth humorously plays with the expectations of the viewer and makes one think twice. Karin Bohrmann-Roth, born 1955, is a native Kassel sculptress and a lecturer at the Kassel Werkakademie für Gestaltung. The statue was donated by the Lions Club Brüder Grimm in Kassel and is located on the outdoor grounds of Museum of the Brothers Grimm. It is freely accessible (no entrance fee), but only during opening hours, which are Tu - Su 10:00-17:00 hrs and We 10:00-20:00 hrs, Mo closed.
