"When looking at the bronze sculpture" Die Mütterliche "in front of the Niebüller town hall, the unusual posture is noticeable at first glance. In depicting the body, sculptor Waldemar Grzimek has deliberately moved away from the lifelike image. The focus is more on the tension of the body, which The outwardly spread lower legs, the forward leaning upper body and the arms crossed in front of the chest rather follow geometrical and analytical rules. They visually pull the trunk of the woman together and radiate a protective force . The artist did not want to show an ideal woman, but rather to work out special characteristics. The fact that the body appears a little distorted and displaced as a result underlines his intention. " can be read on the page sh-kunst.de/waldemar-grzimek-die-muetterliche

Waldemar Grzimek (1918 –1984) created the sculpture “The Motherly” in 1963
(bronze, granite base) from various basic geometric shapes.
Shoulders, arms and legs are designated as special optical reference points. They generate a high degree of vital tension and integrate the sensual physical charisma of the figure into a higher, general context.
