Background
The “Wandbrunnenrelief mit drei Schulbuben” (Wall fountain relief with three schoolboys) by Karl Geiser, from 1924, is a stone relief in the hall on the second floor of the Munzinger primary school in Bern. Karl Geiser (1898–1957), born in Bern, worked as a sculptor, etcher and photographer. He was self-taught and opened his first studio in Bern in 1918. Around 1950 he received a commission for a fountain sculpture at the Probstei school in Zürich-Schwamendingen.
