The depiction of a two-wheeled chariot drawn by two horses is a classic motif from antiquity, similar to, for example, the quadriga on the Brandenburg Gate. The sculptor Hans Wimmer takes up the theme, but creates a reduced sculpture that not only omits details such as reins, but also appears entirely unwarlike. Instead of a warrior in full armor, a young woman in a summer dress stands on the chariot in the Gottorf Castle Sculpture Park, and the crowned horses also appear more like prancing.

The bronze figures in Gottorf Castle in Schleswig are impressive works of art that are part of the State Museum's collection. Particularly well-known are the figures from medieval and early modern art, which often depict religious or mythological motifs.

One example is the so-called "Schleswig-Holstein Figures," which are considered significant bronze sculptures. These figures are often life-size or larger and depict scenes from mythology, history, or religious traditions. They were mostly created in the 16th or 17th century and are a testament to the craftsmanship of the time.
