Vier Tageszeiten, Bronze sculpture at Brühl's Terrace, Dresden, Germany and stone sculpture in Chemnitz Castle Park, Germany
The Four Times of Day consists of four distinct sculptural groups, alternating between male and female figures with children, representing different moments of the day.
Johannes Schilling created the original sandstone sculptures in 1868 for Dresden's Brühl's Terrace, which were later moved to Chemnitz in 1936 and replaced by bronze replicas.
Each sculpture group symbolizes a time of day: morning depicts awakening, noon represents work and dedication, evening shows music and dance, while night portrays sleep and dreams.
The Chemnitz sandstone sculptures underwent extensive restoration between 2010 and 2011, including desalination treatments and replacement of damaged sections to preserve their condition.
The sculptures earned Johannes Schilling first prize at the 1869 Vienna Art Exhibition, leading to their installation as replacements for earlier lion statues by Christian Gottlieb Kühn.
