The sculptural decoration of the Pellerhaus

The sculptural decoration of the Pellerhaus

1605 to 1607

Lion on the pedestal of the parapet area in the courtyard of the Pellerhaus


The artworks by Hans Werner listed by Fritz Traugott Schulz in relation to the Peller House in Thieme-Becker: - the four fireplaces in the entrance halls of the first and second floors - especially the St. Martin relief on the facade - the thunderbolt-throwing Zeus as a gable crowning element - and the reclining lions playing with balls on the northern courtyard balustrade. (Traugott Schulz / Thieme Becker) ____________________________________________ The similarities in the motifs and their execution - the lion's head motif with the large coats of arms on the Wöhrder Gate Bastion (now on the Vestner Gate Bastion), - the man's head with a winged mustache - and the climbing putto (see the Dobschütz epitaph in St. John's Church) suggest that these sculptural works on the balustrade in the courtyard of the Pellershaus are also the work of Hans Werner.
