Poiss moonidega (Boy with Poppies) is a marble tomb monument on the square behind the chapel in Ambla Cemetery in Ambla, Estonia. It created in 1923 by the sculptor Anton Starkopf.
History
The monument marks the grave of Lothar Arenschild (September 15, 1917 – March 30, 1922), the son of Reinhold Arenschild (1884 – c. 1938) and Magdalena Arenschild [et] (née Soosõrv, 1895–1945).
This was was the Starkopf's first tombstone, and it was commissioned by Reinhold Ahrenschild, the Ambla parish clerk, in memory of his son. Because the client was short of money, the statue was initially supposed to be made of cement. However, while on vacation in Germany, Starkopf met the Dresden sculptor Hans Hartmann-McLean, who was no longer working at the time. His studio was vacant and there was a piece of expensive marble there, and an assistant was also available. Therefore, Starkopf decided to model the intended tombstone figure and carve it in marble in Germany, from where it was later sent to Estonia.
It is popularly said that Lothar Arenschild was the son of a baker or pharmacist, and that he died after eating too many raw poppy seeds.
Description
The marble sculpture depicts a lying nude of a boy leaning on his right elbow. The boy holds a bouquet of poppies in his hands. Poppies were used by Starkopf as a symbol of transience. The front of the simple plinth is carved with Arenschild's birth and death dates.
