A gleaming white novзы in the Grand Garden of Dresden has just been unveiled.

In the esteemed environs of The Great Garden, a newly-arrived marble sculpture graced its presence on Tuesday at high noon. Weighing a substantial 1.6 tons, the sculpture now serves as a striking adornment before the Palais, featuring a figure of an angel and a woman. With the precision of a crane and meticulous care, Saxon property management was responsible for its installation.

For artist Andreas Klein, the unveiling of this work represents the pinnacle of his career. He humbly reflected, "Five years ago, I began with a 21-ton marble block, much of which is now diminished, yet the journey has proven exceptionally rewarding."

Initial viewings will reveal the sculpture swathed in a protective layer of wax, with ultrasonic testing to follow in the ensuing days. By June's end, the sculpture will gleam brilliantly among the verdant foliage. The original "Time Steals Beauty", heavily weathered by the elements, was relocated to the sculpture depot at the close of May.

Through delving into the artist's background and connection with the sculpture, one may glean insights into its significance. The title "Time Steals Beauty" suggests exploration of themes such as impermanence, the impact of time on physical beauty, or even human experience, aging, and the fleeting nature of beauty. This work's exceptional value in Klein's career may stem from its novelty, thematic depth, or technical innovation, setting it apart from previous efforts.

In the world of home-and-garden, the new marble sculpture, titled "Time Steals Beauty," has become a captivating addition to the lifestyle of The Great Garden, showcased alongside the lush greenery. This sculpture, standing before the Palais, is a testament to the gardening pursuits of Saxon property management, as they meticulously installed it earlier this week.
