Kiss (1802 – 1865) is fascinating for

its detailed design

Until the demolition of the Stadtschloss, the monument was located in its courtyard, later in Friedrichshain park

With the reconstruction of the Nikolaiviertel the equestrian statue has found a proper place in Berlin’s historic center, facing the oldest church in the city – St. Nicholas Church

An expressive statue of St. George the Dragon-slayer, by Johann Georg Pinsel, stands in the church attic. Pinsel's hands also created the stony images of St. Leo, the Pope and St. Athanasius who stand on guard over the church portal "warning with their stern look about their readiness to fight against anyone not showing enough venerability”

Johann Georg Pinsel – one of the most talented and mysterious sculptors of the 18th century. He is nicknamed Ukrainian Michelangelo for his extraordinary mastery. An exhibition of the renowned Ukrainian artist in the Louvre was opened in 2012
