Lederstrumpfbrunnen, Public drinking fountain in Edenkoben, Germany.
The stone fountain presents sculptures of Leatherstocking, an Indian named Chingachgook, a dog with a turkey, and two beavers at Goldenen Eck square.
Johann Adam Hartmann, who emigrated to North America in 1764 and worked as a trapper, inspired James Fenimore Cooper's Leatherstocking character.
Artist Max Slevogt created detailed lithographs of the Leatherstocking tales, which received publication by Berliner Pan-Presse in 1909.
The fountain provides fresh drinking water to residents and visitors while offering a central meeting point in the town center.
Sculptor Gernot Rumpf designed this fountain in 1987 to connect German emigrant history with American frontier literature through detailed figures.
