In 1986 the Düsseldorf-based sculptor Klaus Kammerichs created "Beethon" (as a contribution to the exhibition "Myth Beethoven" on the occasion of the Beethoven Festival in 1986), a visually stunning concrete bust based on the best-known portrait of Beethoven, painted in 1819 by Karl Josef Stieler. The name of the bust is a play on the German Word "Beton", meaning "conrete".
Name of Musician: Ludwig van Beethoven
