Nymph Sculpture

The Nymph sculpture, German: Nymphe, was created in 1938. Its author was the famous German sculptor Hermann Brachert (1890-1972), who lived and worked for more than ten years near Rauschen in the resort settlement of Georgenswalde, now Otradnoye.

The model for the sculpture was seventeen-year-old Käthe Tzigan. The bronze Nymph sculpture was cast in the sculptor's workshop in Georgenswalde and installed in a specially designed niche on the Rauschen promenade.

The sculpture was damaged during the fighting in 1945 and restored by Svetlogorsk monumental sculptor N.P. Frolov.

In 1991, N.P. Frolov made a cement shell faced with coloured mosaic and placed the sculpture inside it.

Having endured the hardships of wartime, Nymph remains an ornament of the promenade and one of the symbols of the Svetlogorsk resort.
