A photo dated September 21, 1949, of how Federal Chancellor Adenauer left the headquarters of the Allied High Commission in the Hotel Petersberg in Königswinter , served as a model for the statue . During the meeting, Adenauer had deliberately disregarded the instruction not to step on the carpet on which the representatives of the occupying powers were standing.
