Mother Teresa Part of the Former-Berlin Wall
November 10, 2016

Mother Teresa’s image, the great Albanian humanitarian, is commemorated as symbol of human values even in Germany. Her portrait, along with that of other personalities as Gandhi, Nelson Mandela and Aung San Suu Kyi has been designed in specific part of the former Berlin Wall, in Teltow, Germany by the artist Victor Landeta. He undertook this initiative on occasion of 27th anniversary of the fall of Berlin Wall conveying a peace message through these distinct figures. 

Berlin Wall was a barrier constructed by the German Democratic Republic on August 13, 1961 and was demolished on November 9, 1989. Segments of this barrier remain still intact as a commemoration of that dark period. This wall was seen as the iron-curtain between two opposite worlds during the entire Cold War. His demolition marked the beginning of the fall of communism in Europe.
