    This sculpture is based on a character from Rainer Marias Rilke's only novel: The Notes of Malte Laurids Brigge, which was first published in 1910.

      Elke Teuber, Kaufungen “Is Abelone beautiful?”

        The Picasso-esque Abelone appears like a sorceress. “…I was interested to know why Abelone had not married. She seemed old to me, relatively old, and I didn't think that she could still do it. “There was no one there,” she answered simply, becoming really beautiful. Is Abelone beautiful? I asked myself in surprise. Then I left home, went to the Noble Academy, and a disgusting and bad time began. But when I stood there in the window at Sorö, away from the others, and they left me alone for a bit, I looked out into the trees, and in such moments and at night the certainty that Abelone was beautiful grew in me. …” From: Rainer Maria Rilke, The Notes of Malte Laurids Brigge, 1910
