Monument to Julius Zeyer in Chotkovy sady, Memorial sculpture in Chotkovy sady, Czech Republic.
The marble monument features a grotto-like structure with sculptures depicting characters from Julius Zeyer's literary works, including Paskalina, Kazi, Teta, and Libuse.
Josef Mauder created this monument in 1913 to honor Czech writer Julius Zeyer, incorporating natural granite boulders and a water cascade fed by spring water.
The monument includes a relief portrait of the poet and displays golden inscriptions of Zeyer's works on polished red Swedish granite on its reverse side.
Located in the public gardens of Chotkovy sady, the monument stands near the serpentine road that offers views of Prague's cityscape.
The structure combines over one hundred natural boulders from Pozar granite with white marble sculptures carved in Laas, Tyrol, forming an artificial rock formation.
