Description
Deutsch: Ehemalige Siegesallee in Berlin mit dem Doppelstandbild (Detail) für die gemeinsam regierenden Brandenburger Markgrafen Johann I. (1213–1266) und Otto III. (ca. 1215–1267), Söhne von Albrecht II. Bildhauer: Max Baumbach, Enthüllung 22. März 1900. Der auf einem Stein sitzende Johann I. hat über seinen Knien die Urkunde ausgebreitet, durch die Berlin und Cölln das Stadtrecht erhalten haben sollen. Der jüngere Otto III. steht neben ihm und weist mit einem Arm auf die Urkunde, während der andere Arm auf einem Jagdspieß ruht. Die jugendlichen Städtegründer sind hier als reife Männer dargestellt, denn zwei Knabengestalten hätten den Gründungsakt einer späteren Weltstadt aus Sicht der gängigen Geschichtsinterpretation nicht angemessen zum Ausdruck bringen können.
English: The former Siegesallee in Berlin with the double statue (detail) commemorating the corulers of Brandenburg, Margrave John I (1213–1266) and Margrave Otto III (ca. 1215–1267), sons of Albert II and grandchildren of Otto II. Sculptor: Max Baumbach. The sculpture was unveiled on 22 March 1900. Spread across the knees of John I is the document granting town charters to Berlin and Cölln. The younger Otto III stands beside him, pointing to the charter with one arm while the other rests on a hunting spike. The youthful city founders are portrayed here as mature men, because in the view of contemporaries the significance of founding the later metropolis would not have been adequately manifested as an act of two youngsters.
