Traveling giants in the wind
The sculpture group “Travelling Giants in the Wind” by Martin Wolke has stood in front of the Westerländer train station on Sylt for twenty years. The giant family, consisting of mother, father and two children, welcomes the arriving travelers - five meters high, bright green and an integral part of the cityscape. To mark this milestone anniversary, we are releasing an exclusive artist edition of the figures in miniature format for your home!
The group of figures “Travelling Giants in the Wind” is not only a shining monument to the hospitality of the Sylt people. It is also a tribute to the persistence of many island visitors who, year after year, push themselves into the wind and enjoy the beauty of the island. For many people, greeting the “Traveling Giants in the Wind” group is like a tradition when visiting Sylt. Now you have the opportunity to bring the sculptures home. On the one hand as a nice memory and souvenir for yourself. And of course as an exclusive gift for a dear Sylt fan.
We start first with the giantess, available in two sizes: 10 cm and a special limited edition in 18 cm format.
The 18 cm version is numbered consecutively and is limited to 100 copies. In addition, it has about 6 times the volume of the small figure. In addition, it is exclusively produced by the artist and signed by hand.
Material 18 cm: resin cast painted. Material 10 cm: painted tin cast.
The special edition “Travelling Giants in the Wind” is only available from us. We are sure that the Sylt giants will bring Sylt fans just as much joy as our customer Steffi, who wrote the following:
“It is a reminder of our life together. These giants mean so much to us. They accompany us and our regular trips to Sylt. It’s an honor that I can give away a miniature original from the artist himself to my loved one for Christmas.(…).”
