Statues - Hither & Thither

 

Description

Sculptures on the gate buildings of the former bus depot of the Allgemeinen Berliner Omnibus AG. On both buildings is a brick relief figure of a conductor (often incorrectly referred to as "male and female conductor", but they are clearly two male figures, one of them wearing a long coat). On top of the right bulding is a limestone sculpture of a massive bear standing on all fours.
Also on the administration building are brick reliefs.
