Merkur-Brunnen - Mercury Fountain

Merkur-Brunnen - Mercury Fountain
➽ HFF and a great sunny WE to all!
_____________________

Der Merkurbrunnen (am besten in Originalgröße), den ich euch in den letzten Tagen hier vorgestellt habe (siehe auch klickbare PiPs), nun komplett. Er ist einer von drei sogenannten "Augsburger Prachtbrunnen".

Die Augsburger Prachtbrunnen sind drei Brunnen in der Augsburger Maximilianstraße. Sie bilden eine Trias, die die drei Stände der Reichsstadt anspricht: den Herren-, Kaufmanns- und Handwerkerstand. Die Brunnen wurden zwischen 1588 und 1600 von Hubert Gerhard und Adriaen de Vries geschaffen.

The "Merkurbrunnen" ( Mercury Fountain) (best in full size), which I introduced to you in the last days (see also clickable PiPs), now completely. He is one of three so-called "Augsburger Prachtbrunnen" (magnificent fountains).

The "Augsburger Prachtbrunnen" (magnificent fountains) are three fountains in Augsburg's Maximilian street. They form a triad that appeals to the three stands of the realm city: the stands of sovereigns, merchants and craftsmen. The Fountains were created between 1588 and 1600 by Hubert Gerhard and Adriaen de Vries.
