In the Olympic village naar Berlin a remarkable piece of art is visible, showing marching German soldiers. It can be found in the Hindenburg Haus, used during the Olympic Games 1936 for training, recreation and other purposes. During the Russian occupation it was hidden by a layer of concrete,which has been removed a few years ago.

My question is regarding the artist, writer, sculptor and illustrator Walter Von Ruckteschell. He is also know for the „Deutsch-Ostafrika-Ehrenmal“ in Hamburg. Wikipedia has some info on him, but do the readers here have more information about other monuments or sculptures by his hands?
Thanks in advance
Maurice

Re: Walter von Ruckteschell
There seem to be lots of scans available of his paintings and drawings, but not much of monuments / sculptures...
Some examples of his wooden sculptures from recent auctions:
