"He who knows himself and others will also recognize here that orient and occident can no longer be separated". (Goethe, 1819) Inaugurated in 2000, the two granite chair sculptures facing each other remind us of the encounter and togetherness of Occident and Orient and at the same time symbolize the affinity of the Persian poet and mystic Hafis and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Between them, on a flat pedestal with oriental ornaments, is a bronze plate with a ghazel of Hafis in Persian ornamental writing.
