The Representative of Humanity between Lucifer and Ahriman

Christ as Representative of Humanity between Lucifer and Ahriman - Wooden sculpture by Rudolf Steiner and Edith Maryon.

The Representative of Humanity between Lucifer and Ahriman is a wooden sculpture more than 8 m high designed by Rudolf Steiner and created together with the sculptor Edith Maryon for the first Goetheanum in Dornach. It was to be placed in the small domed room, the stage room of the first Goetheanum. When the Goetheanum burned down on New Year's Eve 1922/23, the sculpture had not yet been completed and was therefore spared from the fire.
