Background
The fountain figure “Bisligödu” by Max Fueter (1952) is made of bronze and shell limestone and stands in the stairwell hall at Bundesgasse 33, with entrance from Schwanengasse 14, Bern. Max Fueter (1898–1983), born in Konolfingen and died in Bern, was a sculptor, draughtsman and watercolour painter. Fueter belonged to the sculptors who made several fountains in Bern, including the Rathaushofbrunnen of 1942. Another fountain by him, Der Flötenspieler (1938), stands by the conservatory in Bern. No further sources on the making or design of “Bisligödu” are documented yet.
