 * Symbol question.svg expansion verified, interesting, well sourced, pic free but not mentioned. Quirky suggestion:
 * ALT1... that sculptor Otto Lessing designed the Lessing monument in Berlin (pictured) and his own tomb? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:37, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
 * A less quirky suggestion, and linking to "the other" Lessing (the pictured monument is NOT the tomb):
 * ALT2... that sculptor Otto Lessing shaped the appearance of Berlin, for example with the monument for Lessing (pictured)? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:59, 7 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for feedback - I have a pic of him but cannot verify copyright so did not upload it...  and yes since the tomb itself is not the picture, how about this for hook?
 * ALT3... that Historicist sculptor Otto Lessing, who largely shaped the appearance of Imperial Berlin and built the Lessing Monument (pictured), also designed his own tomb? -- Ultracobalt (talk) 05:40, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg fine with me, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:40, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
