Tannenberg Memorial - Copy

Copy

Architect Dietrich Zlomke was born in Koenigsberg. He was commissioned to design a memorial to the dead of East and West Prussia in the two world wars, which was dedicated at Oberschleissheim near Munich in 1995. His choice of design was a miniature copy of the Tannenberg Memorial in concrete, dominated in the centre by an oak cross twenty feet high and a smaller iron cross on the pale wall at the rear.

Famous quotes containing the word copy:

    Learn hence for ancient rules a just esteem;
    To copy Nature is to copy them.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    This made you first to know the Why
    You liked, then after to apply
    That liking; and approach so one the tother,
    Till either grew a portion of the other;
    Each styled by his end,
    The copy of his friend.
    Ben Jonson (1572–1637)

    Canst thou copy in verse one chime
    Of the wood-bell’s peal and cry,
    Write in a book the morning’s prime,
    Or match with words the tender sky?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
