The Quadriga is Berlin's most famous sculpture. Very few people are aware, however, that the Quadriga on the Brandenburg Gate is a replica. Today's version is based on a cast made in 1942. A plaster cast was made from these moulds in 1957. The precious sculpture is now being restored as part of a collaboration between the Gipsformerei of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin, the Art Advisory Council of the German Bundestag and the Berlin State Office for the Preservation of Monuments.

Johann Gottfried Schadow (1764 -1850) was the founder of the Berlin Sculpture School of Classicism and the creator of many important works. A number of Schadow's sculptural masterpieces, such as the tomb of Count von der Mark (1790), partial casts of the Quadriga (1793) and images of the Princesses Friederike and Luise are part of the collection of the Gipsformerei.
