context_page_description: Carsten Eggers is a German sculptor and painter.
  There are about 20 realistic bronze sculptures of his in northern Germany and the Netherlands.
  His best-known works are a bronze bust of Rudi Carrell and a larger-than-life monument of boxing legend Max Schmeling.
context_section_description: Eggers' paintings are very varied thematically. The early works are strongly influenced by expressionism. After an impressionist phase his style became more and more characterized by realism. The realism of his paintings became more pronounced during his study trips to America, China, Brazil, France, Madeira, Portugal, Spain and Tunisia, which lasted several months,
  Together with his change in style he switches to pastel, and adds portraits, nudes, and elaborate compositions to his repertoire
  This leads to oversized pastel paintings, some comprising five elements and up to four metres wide, hanging in public places.
