"The figuration gives the impression of a precarious equilibrium, which stands in contrast to the heaviness of the material. The dynamism created by the inclined steel girders is additionally reinforced by the flaming red paint and the bank visible from afar, like a signal for the new building on the edge of the internationally traveled body of water. At the same time, the sculpture points to the northeast and thus to today's federal capital, Berlin. "

Quite a lot of thoughts in the pile of metal: p

The sculpture "L'Allumé" ("The Enlightened One") by Mark di Suvero was erected here on the Rhine in 1992, directly in front of what was then the new plenary hall of the German Bundestag.

The American artist Mark di Suvero erected "L'Allumé," the German translation of "The Enlightened One," in October 1992 in Bonn's parliamentary district, directly on the banks of the Rhine. At that time, the steel girders gleamed a vibrant red. Over the years, the paint faded, the steel rusted, and graffiti marred the sculpture. Therefore, the Federal Office for Building and Regional Planning (BBR) carried out the restoration for approximately €50,000 on behalf of the owner, the Federal Agency for Real Estate (BImA). (2010). bbr.bund.de/BBR/DE/Bauprojekte/Bonn/UN/UNCampus/LAllume/l%27allum%C3%A9.html

The ten-meter-high sculpture is definitely worth seeing.
