Summary edit

Description
English: The heavily weathered base of this pump of the type Little Lion originally carried a sculpture, which represented this animal and formed the upper end of the plant. The design refers to the Leipzig coat of arms and was originally the winner of a competition in which the municipal art association and the Dürerbund took part in 1908. The name of the artist is no longer known. An octagonal foot carries an upward tapered, rounded pump shaft at the top, on which is a superstructure with four turrets. A lion sitting on it rests on a shield with the city coat of arms. The spout is designed as a lion's head. At the time of this recording, the upper plastic was missing, but the number 221 was still recognizable and the spout further down was still fully preserved.
Deutsch: Der stark verwitterte Sockel dieser Pumpe vom Typ Kleiner Löwe trug ursprünglich eine Plastik, welche dieses Tier darstellte und den oberen Abschluss der Anlage bildete. Der Entwurf nimmt Bezug auf das Leipziger Wappentier und ging ursprünglich als Sieger aus einem Wettbewerb hervor, an dem sich der städtische Kunstverein und der Dürerbund 1908 beteiligt hatten. Der Name des Künstlers ist nicht mehr bekannt. Ein achteckiger Fuß trägt einen sich nach oben verjüngenden, im oberen Teil gerieften, runden Pumpenschaft, auf dem sich ein Aufbau mit vier Türmchen befindet. Ein darauf sitzender Löwe stützt sich auf einen Schild mit dem Stadtwappen. Der Auslauf ist als Löwenkopf gestaltet. Zum Zeitpunkt dieser Aufnahme fehlte die obere Plastik, jedoch war die Nummer 221 noch erkennbar und der Auslauf weiter unten noch vollständig erhalten.
