RemarksRemarks: | "Überprägt. - Nike wird auf dem vorliegenden Exemplar auf einem Stuhl sitzend gezeigt. Wie vorher der Cippus (z. B. Objektnummer 18218678 und 18218679), wird nun auch vom Stempelschneider versucht diesen Stuhl räumlich darzustellen. Er zeigt hierzu das zweite Hinterbein, was andeuten soll, dass der Stuhl leicht schräg zum Betrachter steht. Dies wirkt sich aber noch nicht auf die Sitzfläche und die Position der Nike aus" |
