Title
Wall painting Use the time
Description
The scenery is set around the town hall clock on the west façade and has to be read together with it. Activities of life are depicted, but also traditional roles: the boy playing music with a mandolin, the young man working with a shovel; the young woman looking after a child and the old man reading. Clockwise, the order is different and not related to ages: reading, educating, playing and working. Wider put an appeal to the diligence of the people of the Rhine Valley into the picture here, but also praise for this virtue. In the zenith, an angel points the way to God. He holds an hourglass, a symbol of transience. He reminds us that the last hour remains hidden. Therefore: Use the time!'
