The sculpture depicts the duality of Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann's inner world: on the one hand, he was a writer of fairy tales, composer and artist, and on the other, a lawyer and civil servant. The sculpture is installed on the grounds of the Storyteller's House guest house; the author is S.N. Usachyov. Nearby, visitors can also see other sculptural compositions inspired by the writer's works, as well as a model of medieval Königsberg. The model depicts the landscape on which the medieval city stood and more than 500 architectural structures, around 30 of which are historically significant. These include the castle, cathedral, churches, fortress walls, towers, town halls and bridges.
