Brigitte and Martin Matschinsky-Denninghoff

Eroica
1986

Brass and tin. 37 x 24 x 22 cm. Base 2.2 x 27 x 27 cm. Scratched monogram, date and title 'M-D 86 "EROICA 86"' on underside of base. - Minor traces of age.

The 4.50 metre tall sculpture "Heros" made of chrome-nickel steel is located in a public space in Regensburg (WVZ-Nr.560). Our sculpture is presumably a model for this large-scale sculpture, which varies slightly in its architectural elements.
