I'm glad so many people stopped by to see my first Wordless Wednesday photo. I thought I'd tell you a little about the sculpture in the photo today.

This outdoor sculpture, called Buchturm 1997 ("Book Tower 1997"), stands in a sculpture park just outside the city of Bad Münster am Stein-Ebernburg in Germany's Nahe wine region. The husband-wife team of Wolfgang Kubach and Anna Kubach-Wilmsen created this sculpture. Their stone book sculptures have been exhibited all around the world. You can see Kubach-Wilmsen sculptures in libraries, museums and gardens in Europe and the U.S.

The Steinskulpturenpark ("Stone Sculpture Park") you see in the photo is an outdoor exposition of several Kubach-Wilmsen works; the couple established the park in 1996. Admission is free, and when you visit you'll see local families walking the paths, enjoying the Nahe's mountain views and fresh air.
