Emperor Wilhelm I Bust / Kaiser Wilhelm Bueste

He looks a bit grumpy. Must have been the weather. / Erschaut etwas grantig drein. War vieleicht das Wetter schuld.

Thanks for liking our poor old Willie, in spite of still wearing a few remnants of the last assault with red paint from those not apreciating him. I thought they got it all off, only in the photo I saw his eyes, the mustache, the jacket button and furbrim so detailed I realized it is still there.

He ha a lot on his mind to be "Grumpy" about. Never the less, this is indeed a great statue of the old Emperor !

Sure, Marvin. An other point of his would be why they did not adjust him so he exactly faces Salzmann harbour across the shore where the MS Elisa sits. It would be a nice tribute to his personal life, poor old Bill and his lost love, Princess Elisa Radziwill . They missed that chance and the poor guy has to look at somewhere in swizzerland instead.
Everything else he could ponder would be political I guess...
