Asset Overview
Dragon sculpture at Rådhuspladsen 1, 1599 København, Denmark (Copenhagen, Denmark), brass. Made with Memento Beta (now Remake) from Autodesk.
It was designed by Joakim Skovgaard in collaboration with Thorvald Bindesbøll and features a bull in combat with a dragon. The design was originally created as an entry in the competition for a new monument on Amagertorv. Skovgaard conceived the original idea and made the first model in 1889. It was then modified by Bindesbøll before Skovgaard created the final drawings. The Dragon Fountain's first part, without the central animal group, was inaugurated in 1904. The fountain was surrounded by a low, outer basin in 1908. A plaster model of the central composition was on display in the fountain from 31 May until 7 June 1915. A bronze cast was later created in Lauritz Rasmussen's bronze workshop and the fountain was finally inaugurated on 4 June 1923. (Wikipedia)
