Schubert Monument, Vienna, Monument to composer Franz Schubert in Stadtpark, Austria.
The marble statue presents Franz Schubert in a seated position, holding a pen and music paper while displaying a contemplative expression.
The Vienna Men's Choral Society collected funds through concerts and donations over ten years to establish this monument, which opened on May 15, 1872.
Three reliefs on the pedestal represent different musical aspects: imagination on the front, instrumental music on the left, and vocal music on the right.
The monument stands in Stadtpark, Vienna's first public park, accessible from the Weihburggasse and Stubentor stops on tram line 2.
Sculptor Carl Kundmann created both this monument and the memorial at Schubert's grave in Zentralfriedhof cemetery, maintaining artistic consistency in commemorating the composer.
