Peace

Artist: Walter Womacka
Completed: 1988
Address: Marzahner Promenade 45, Berlin, Germany

‘Freiden’ (Peace), by Walter Womacka was completed in 1988, and adorns the facade of a pub.

The mosaic measures 4.5 x 17 metres and depicts a mother and her child basking in the glow of a golden sun which is blended with the profile of a young woman. 

Emphasis is put on the harmonious qualities of nature; the wings of a dove melt into the sun’s rays, leaves and vines intertwine themselves into the mother’s hair. The sandy, golden and pinkish tones synthesise with the natural environment it was placed in – overlooking a small but green leisure area.
